Typhoon Longwang forms in Pacific
Digital Typhoon ^

Typhoon LONGWANG was born in Mariana Islands. It is forecast to move westward for the moment. This makes three typhoons active in the western north Pacific, which means that we are in the middle of the peak season of typhoons. 
 Speaking about the peak season of typhoons, in Japan, today is known to be a unique day in terms of typhoon (landfall). This is because three famous typhoons made landfall at Japan on September 26; namely Toyamaru Typhoon (195415 / MARIE), Kanogawa Typhoon (195822 / IDA), and Isewan Typhoon (195915 / VERA). The list of typhoon damage reveals that these three typhoons are in fact the top three in the ranking of dead or missing people since 1951 -- such huge damage. 
 This typhoon is still tiny just after the birth, and it is difficult to predict the track and intensification of the typhoon at this time of life cycle, but we need to pay attention to the forecast for preparation.

    Ms. Mitchell continues to serve with the Hurricane Hunter division of the Air Force Reserves and is involved in reconnaissance missions that gather data to aid in the forecasting of tropical storms and hurricanes. In the 2004 hurricane season, she was on flights gathering data about Hurricane Charley including a flight south of Cuba which led to upgrading the hurricane from Category 1 to Category 2. How about Nicole Mitchell?
When Katrina was heading for NO, the Weather Channel kept showing her in her USAF dress blues. 
Yum.

    I noticed she has gained a bit of weight. I wonder if it is Prego time again at TWC? Seacows on parade.

    I wish I had signed on earlier to this thread.
 All the good Puns are taken!
 Okay, this one is reaching...
 I would love to hear the Japanese speculate
 (given the reaction to Katrina and Rita, you know)
 how "LongWang" could affect the Presidential "Election".<--
 Now pronounce the "L" in that last word like the Japanese do.
 Cheers!

    Is it beginning to swell? Might just spurt and go away.
