On July 25, 2018 at 5 a.m. EDT (0900 UTC) Typhoon Wukong was located near 33.9 degrees north latitude and 157.8 degrees east longitude, about 615 miles north-northeast of Minami Tori Shima Island, Japan. It was moving to the north at 12 knots (13.8 mph/22.2 kph) and had maximum sustained winds near 65 knots (75 mph/120.4 kph).

The Joint Typhoon Warning Center forecast noted that Wukong will continue moving in a northerly direction and quickly weaken as it tracks over cooler waters. Wukong is forecast to transition into an extra-tropical system in the next day and a half and merge with a 500 millibar low pressure system.
