A powerful typhoon with wind speeds up to 176 kilometers per hour is expected to hit parts of Korea and Japan this week.

Typhoon Noru developed over the sea east of Japan on July 21. It was moving south when it abruptly changed course early Tuesday and headed toward Japan and Korea.

As of 3 a.m., it was moving toward Kagoshima carrying "very strong" intensity, the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) said.

The KMA believes Noru will be 970 kilometers south of Tokyo by Friday morning, affecting Seogwipo on Jeju Island.

During the KMA's six-day forecast, Noru will have pressure between 935 and 960 hectopascals and maintain wind speeds of 140 to 176 kilometers per hour.
