defrogAnd welcome to our second typhoon of the year.
We’re already at Strong Wind Signal 8 (the level where everything gets shut down). Luckily, it’s set to make landfall 150 km to the west of us. But it’s still close enough to translate into another fun evening of loud wind and making sure the window seals are holding (as opposed to sleeping).
This one turned out to be one those teaser storms that starts off weak and looks like it’s going to miss HK by a wide margin, then stalls over the open sea, takes its time, rethinks its options, swells into a big fat typhoon and then guns it for us.
Whoosh!
A mighty wind,
This is dF
