A tale of two typhoons


Courtesy NASA
Typhoon Bolaven, a category IV typhoon, is barrelling north into the Yellow Sea, whilst maintaining a gossamer thread link to its half-sized brother Tembin south of Taiwan. Tembin is a category I system.

Bolaven is weakening as it heads for landfall in North Korea, which will receive large amounts of rainfall.
Tembin is going to be dragged north by its larger neighbour.

  1. And poor old New Orleans/Louisiana again about to suffer........'twill be interesting to see the US govt approach to this one in the aftermath. Nothing like as strong or threatening but nevertheless a real danger!

  2. And when it rains, it pours as poor New Orleans is going to get hit again also. So many parts of the world are having problems.
