I wish these storms could be parceled out and sent to Texas.
Joe Bastardi is predicting considerable weakening before making landfall at Japan.
Praying that the storm either loses considerable strength before landfall, or better yet that it changes course and heads out to open seas.
i have a friend in Iwakuni... which seems far from Okinawa... but i am not sure how typhoons work...
Why is this particular storm being labeled “super” and monster?
There have been at least 20 storms of this size or greater since 2000.
It’s big... will probably “Ike” out and lose much of it’s strength before landfall.
But it’s no Katrina or Andrew.
What is the difference between... a Typhoon, a Hurricane and a Cyclone?
Or are they simply different names used by people in different places for the same thing?
