HEAVY WEATHER 2008: FENGSHEN!
Our next Typhoon No. 1 warning signal this year is courtesy of Typhoon Fengshen, which just decimated the Philippines – 229 dead so far, and the toll is likely to go up, as the storm also capsized a ferry with 750 people on it.
If it stays on course, it’ll miss us, but typhoons go where the mood takes them, so you never know. To be honest, though, it’d be nice if it sent some wind and rain our way – we’ve been pushing the 34ºC mark since Thursday.
But like Richard Perle likes to say these days, be careful what you wish for, etc. Especially since it's likely to hit the China coast, and they've got enough flooding problems as it is – which, apparently, is the fault of the Olympic mascots.
No, really.
Hot hot heat,
This is dF
