Hahaha. Actually i wonder if it doesn't still have a few tricks up its sleeve. One model is forecasting it to loop back to Taiwan.

It's pouring here now as we get an intense band of rain fed into is (which is morakot and asapi in reverse) and if the pink guys are right, or even if it stalls, then we might be looking at serious landslides by tomorrow. When i say 'looking at', i hope i don't mean actual looking at. Right now it's right on the edge of where you're thinking 'great, we've had the nice soaking we needed' and 'do i need to now start worrying about some torrential, damaging downpour?'. Which is the perfect time-space to have a daytime beer.
