The western side of Typhoon Lupit is visible in this satellite image from NASA Aqua's AIRS instrument. Aqua's track took it to the west of the storm on Oct. 22 at 5:41 UTC (1:41 p.m. Asia/Manila Time). Lupit's high thunderstorm cloud temperatures (in purple) were still strong and colder than minus 63F.
