defrogBeen awhile since I’ve posted one of these – we haven’t seen much typhoon action in HK the past couple of years.
That ends tonight.
Yes, that’s two (2) typhoons there, though only one of them (the weaker one, not the Super Typhoon) is headed here. It’s been lurking offshore for the past week, and for most of that wasn’t more than a tropical storm. It wasn’t expected to come anywhere close to us, and now it’s beefed up and heading straight for us.
We go to Signal 8 at 1700.
Gonna be a long night.
Buckle down,
This is dF
EDITED TO ADD [13 July]: Never mind. Total fizzle. Linfa made landfall well before it got to us, so by the time it arrived it was more of a spirited rain shower than a typhoon.
