Super Typhoon Choi-Wan
There is a super typhoon looming around in the Pacific area, specifically in the Saipan and Guam area. The name is Choi-wan. Although right now, this typhoon is not a direct threat to the Philippines, it is still humongous in size. Nakakaloka as in sa laki.
Here is the picture of that typhoon coming from NASA:

For a radar image of the storm from Andersen Air Force Base in Guam (Typhoon Choi-wan), click here.
Here is another satellite imagery (microwave) of the typhoon. As of now, the typhoon’s strength is at 115 knots (135 mph). Category 4 na ang strength nya ngayon. Super typhoon status dito sa Pilipinas.
I remembered the previous super typhoons here in the Philippines, particularly Rosing and Milenyo. Oh well, I just hope this one will not land in our shores. O paano ba yan! Ihipan ang mga salbabida natin! Ihanda na ang mga bamboo rafts! Hahahha.

Naku-lagyan na ng gulong ang mga bubong natin dyan. Ingat po kayo na mga nasa atin.
Heheheh.
I remembered yung mga gulong sa ibabaw ng bubong. Kaso mataas ang risk nila to become breeding grounds ng dengue carrying mosquitoes.
its scary as hell! like it’s going to wipe out those islands on the face of the earth! 5 is catasthropic!
Reynz,
Alam kong hinahanda mo palagi ang 4 inch stiletto heels mo plus natutulog ka with your salbabida. Bwehehe.
tyak liparan nanaman ang bubong nyan! eeeeeeekkkkkkk!
I remembered yung neighbor namen dati, nung kasagsagan ng Typhoon Milenyo. We are fixing our alulod noon, together with my Dad (nagbust kasi yung alulod sa sobrang ulan), muntik na mapugutan ng lumilipad na yero yung neighbor naming yun.
Little did we know, meron na palang tornado sa may area namin, less than a kilometer away. It hit an industrial complex at yung mga bubong na galing dun sa complex na yun e parang tissue paper nung nilipad.
Fortunately, our neighbor was able to duck in time which spared his head from being decapitated.
Ako naman e ang sakit ng katawan ko that time dahil sa lakas ng ulan. Parang latigo pala kung makahagupit ang malakas na ulan.
Pwede ba sa taas ng lang ng Malacanang dumapo yan?
Natawa ako sa caption “continuing to form nicely”..
Hehehe. PWede Rob. Teka, asan yung remote control ko? Heheheh.
Baka siguro yung umayos ng image meant it in meteorological terms. Ibig sabihin nya siguro e malakas ang formation ng walls around the eye of the storm.
Naalala ko yung film ni George Clooney na “The Perfect Storm”.
Dadaan daw ba sa Pilipinas yan? Wag naman sana…pano na lang outing namen this weekend?!? Waaaahhh!!!
Ely,
According to news e lihis daw ito sa Pinas. Tutumbukin nya yung area around Japan. Pipihit papuntang norte ang bagyong ito.
Thank God, Philippines is spared from this super typhoon.
scary! need to stock up food.. baka hit un guam.. its been 5 years ata na walang bagyo na malakas dito.
Emmeline,
Tinamaan ang Guam at Saipan. I dunno kung ano na ang news sa kanila.
Silver, lastnyt super lakas ng ulan and hangin dito sa Guam. buti d naman un eye ng typhoon. papuntang Japan na ngaun.. buti na lang. dito kac wala ka talaga tataguan daw pag may bagyo.
Oo nga Emmeline. Nowhere to run kayo dyan sa Guam kung may typhoon or worst, even a tsunami ~knock on the wood~
Anyway, nice to know na safe na kayo dyan.
May balak pa atang bumayo ng Japan itong si Choi-wan.
susma!
natakot ako. pede ba sa dubai na tumama yan? hahaha para naman maibsan ang napaka init na lugar na to hahahaha
Dencios,
Di mo kailangan ng bagyo dyan. Kelangan mo ng aircon at pridyidir.
palakas talaga nang palakas ang mga typhoon, hurricane and cyclone kahit saan.
Malamang may partisipasyon dito ang climate change.
Nakakapagtaka na ang abrupt changes sa weather.
pray lng tau wala n yan
ika nga “If God be for us, who will be against us?”
