I've received an email from a friend regarding this super typhoon. Email says:

A super huge typhoon (yet unnamed), while still out of the Philippines' area of responsibility is threatening to affect the country in the next few days if it maintains its general direction. etc. Hans Brockman who forwarded the satellite picture says, quoting weather forecasters from Japan and Australia that this typhoon is of such strength never seen in recent years.

If you know somebody who could verify the authenticity of this report, kindly share with us. This is one scary ****!
