Typhoon Talim: 1:00am Sept. 1, 2005

We got Oreo’s, chicken nuggets and fried rice.  Stocked up on H2O (for three days anyway), hell if you have to I can brave the storm during a lull to hit the local 7/11.

 

The rain has been coming down hard for the past few hours. The wind gusts are pretty fanominal. You can tell it is a strong storm from the howling wind. Live right next to the mountain, but mud slids and rock slids don’t happen here, due to the heavy vegitation and some good irrigation.

 

Work has been called of for tomorrow so we get to spend an extra day of family bonding. Interested to see what new surpises Jasper has in store.

 

CNN says this storm is a category 4 storm and is equal to and possibly stronger than Hurricane Katrina. But nothing can beat the aftermath affects of Katrina.

 

Well we are in lock-down and Esther is calling me to bed.
