so they missed the effect of that high pressure in china, which caused pepeng to back out a bit ... and now that high pressure is probably gone, with the pressure at the east maybe higher, they are now again forcasting the usual route, westbound?

from the looks of it, it looks like pepeng have the tendency to be attracted by melong, now in japan, so baka mag-northbound sya ... ah ewan, kaya nga ang tawag sa mga yan bagyo eh, pabago-bago isip!
