Typhoon Melor stirs up the water near
Saipan - let's go sailing !!!
SuperTyphoon Melor now the strongest storm in the world since 2007
167 mph sustained winds (145 knots) Just released video from Typhoon Melor
Just finished shooting Melor - and I thought the waves were big
yesterday!
Now you see them . . .
Now you don't
Currently in Saipan waiting for
Typhoon Melor.
Video Update from Saipan
Just before sunset the cirrus outflow blanketed the sky,
the first sign a typhoon is coming!
Here is a shot
from the Banzai Cliffs on the extreme north side of Saipan
population 65,000 from folks all over the region- picture waves from a
SuperTyphoon landing here !!!!
An unknown number
of Japanese died throwing themselves off Banzai Cliff, so named because
they shouted "Tenno heika, banzai" (Long live the emperor) when they
jumped. 55,000 Japanese, including 12,000 civilians, along with 3500 US
soldiers, died in a three-week battle during World War II for the tiny
Pacific Island.
Daily life goes on here in
Saipan 1 day before a supertyphoon hits!
This Family is from
Fuzhou, China - I was able to speak to them a little
in Fujianese much to their surprise!!!
