The typical cloud before Typhoon

Be safe. Looks like you’re in for a direct hit. Extreme weather is awesome as long as you can observe it, not suffer it!

Daniel , I Trust you and yours are well. Monsoon season here in the desert is best time for cloud spotting. But even here weather can be dangerous. Micro-Bursts that can break telephone poles, hail, local flooding and lightning make for serious cloud spotting.

Hi， Michael，

Thanks for asking and we are all well. The typhoon reduced from the strongest Typhoon in the 50 years to a tropical strom in the last minute, and it only brings heavy rain fall instead of strong wind damage. The cities in the plain are all right, but the small towns in the mountain area are flooded heavily.

Thanks, poth.

Unlike the hurricane, China has a lot of small to midium hills around the coastal line, and when the tropical storm comes inland, the hills greatlly reduce the power of the Typhoon and reduce the damage. Besides, our area has been well prepared for the heavy rain for centries, it also reduce the damage.

The government has announced to make preparation against the possible damage yesterday. It should be fine for us.

Thanks again.

By the way, it is the best period of time to observe and enjoy the cloud during the Typhoon season.

Daniel
