According to the CWB, as of Sunday afternoon, Talim is around 2,300 km from Taiwan’s southernmost tip of Eluanbi and is moving 25 km/h west-northwest toward the Bashi Channel.

The storm will make landfall on southeastern Taiwan if it maintains its current course. The CWB also forecast Talim could strengthen into a typhoon by the time it reaches Taiwan.
