The Central Weather Administration says Typhoon Champi is expected to intensify over the next five days into what one forecaster is calling a "super El Nino typhoon."
As of 2am, Champi was located 3,300 kilometers southeast of Taiwan's southern tip and moving west-northwest at 22 km/h.
Most weather models are putting it on course to reach Taiwan, though it's too early to be certain.
