Talim is here and furious

!0:00 Aug 31. The dark howls. Typhoon Talim, a strong violent monster, has landed on Taiwan. The wind is screaming and throwing everything loose around -- my neighbor's house, deserted after their landlord sold out from under them, but full of stuff, is filled with the sound of crashing and broken glass. I can hear banging and booming all around the neighborhood.

This one is bad.

  1. Stay safe. I'll be interested in hearing first hand accounts of the typhoon destruction.

  2. God, that was hairy. I'll try to get out tomorrow morning and get some shots of the destruction here in Hualien.
