Typhoon Sinlaku (General)

by dan, (11 days ago) @ dulan drift

We just got our power and cell service back after 2 1/2 days. We lucked out big time. Saipan took the bullet this time.

And it slowed to a crawl while it was passing, 3mph for quite a while. The highest gusts here were in the mid 80's mph, with sustained 40-50 I think, but it lasted a long time.

The media won't pick this up at all being Guam and Saipan, but I expect to see some pretty tragic scenes out of Saipan and the other islands.
