Typhoon Maysak was moving toward Jeju early Wednesday, keeping the southern resort island on alert over what was forecast to be one of the most powerful typhoons to hit the country in years.

태풍 마이삭이 수요일 새벽 제주로 이동하며 수년 만에 제주를 강타하는 가장 강력한 태풍 중 하나가 될 것으로 예보된 것에 대해 남부의 휴양 섬에 비상이 걸렸다.


The typhoon was moving at 22 kph at seas some 370 kilometers south of Seogwipo in Jeju as of 6 a.m., according to the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). Its maximum wind speed was 47 meters per second.

기상청에 따르면 이 태풍은 이날 오전 6시 현재 제주 서귀포 남쪽 약 370km 해상에서 시속 22km로 이동하고 있다. 태풍의 최대 풍속은 초속 47m였다.


Maysak was forecast to pass through seas east of Jeju this evening and arrive on the southern coast near South Gyeongsang Province early Thursday. The weather agency said it is then expected to pass through Busan and the country's eastern coastal cities.

마이삭은 이날 저녁 제주 동쪽 해상을 통과해 목요일 새벽 경상남도 부근 남해안에 도착할 것으로 예보됐다. 이어 부산과 동해안 도시들을 통과할 것으로 보인다고 기상청은 알렸다.


The agency said Tuesday that Maysak may be more powerful than Typhoon Bavi that hit the country last week and was expected to follow a similar route as Typhoon Maemi that caused the second-highest property damage ever recorded in the country in 2003.

기상청은 화요일 태풍 마이삭이 지난주에 강타한 태풍 바비보다 더 강력할 수 있으며, 2003년에 역대 두 번째로 많은 재산 피해를 입힌 태풍 매미와 비슷한 경로를 따를 것으로 예상된다고 밝혔다.


While Maysak's strength was expected to slightly ease in the afternoon, damage was expected to be substantial as the country's inland area is predicted to be under the influence of the typhoon.

오후 들어 마이삭의 기세가 다소 약해질 전망이나, 내륙지방은 태풍의 영향권에 들 것으로 보여 큰 피해가 예상됐다.


Maximum wind speed was forecast at up to 50 mps in Jeju and the eastern coastal areas and 40 mps in Gangwon and the southern and eastern inner land regions. A wind speed of 40 mps can topple big rocks and vehicles in operation.

최대풍속은 제주와 동해안 지역에 최고 초속 50m, 강원과 남부·동부내륙 지역에 최고 초속 40m로 예보됐다. 초속 40m의 풍속은 운행 중인 차량과 큰 바위도 넘어뜨릴 수 있다.


With the typhoon approaching the country, a typhoon advisory has been placed in seas surrounding Jeju. The advisory was expected to expand to across the country, including the greater Seoul area, on early Thursday.

태풍이 다가오면서 제주를 둘러싼 해상에 태풍경보가 내려졌다. 태풍경보는 목요일 새벽 수도권을 포함한 전국으로 확대될 전망이다.
