Super Typhoon Kong-rey (Weather)
Large eye made landfall right over Dulan around 2.30pm - again - second bulls-eye in consecutive seasons. Wind was the thing, rather than rain in Taitung.
Damage to Sugar Factory roof by midday - the one that was replaced after last year's super typhoon. Whatever happened to normal typhoons? It's like the weather has been hijacked by Marvel.
Rain: Still coming down at 100 mil an hour in some places as of 4.20pm. Biggest falls in mountainous areas of Ilan & Hualien. Curiously Taichung city is 3rd with 600 mil.
