Meteorological Agency, for now looks to be on the east side of Super Typhoon Choi-wan.  It looks like Iwo-To will get TS winds.  htp://www.jma.go.jp/en/typh/0914l.html  It looks like Chichi-Jima will be a direct hit.

The Navy has not changed Super Typhoon Choi-wan track for either Iwo-To, Chichi-Jima or Honshu
