And there's the wind again. The eye has passed, and it's been picking up over the last hour or so.

It's getting calm. The eye is pretty close, I think. But it's dark now, so there's nothing to see. I've been in the eye once before, in daytime, and it's a really weird feeling.

Valencia today, Taiwan tomorrow, and the day after that?

Can our failed leaders pretend all this away with smug smiles?

The sun has risen over #TyphoonKongRey ( #LeonPH ) which is likely a massive #SuperTyphoon and is closing on Category 5 status. Hoping it will weaken some before it slams into #Taiwan as a major #typhoon.
