As of the 6/03Z advisory Haiyan has continued to rapidly intensify to a 130 kt. supertyphoon while continuing to move just barely north of due west at about 18 mph. It appears to be just about at its closest approach to Yap and is rapidly closing in on Palau. It looks like the northernmost island of that chain, Kayangel (population 138) may take a direct hit. The main island, Koror is under a tropical storm warning and a typhoon watch. The storm is expected to now peak at 145 kts. in the next 12-24 hours.

Regarding landfall in the Philippines I agree with Ed that Leyte island is the most likely landfall point although the official forecast is still holding out for a southern Samar landfall.
