Typhoon Imbudo is shown draped over the Philippines in this true-color Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) from the Aqua satellite on July 22, 2003. The storm was a Super Typhoon just yesterday (July 21) but it weakened a bit over land. The storm is moving west-northwest, and is headed for the southern China coast.
