Lakas pala ng ulan last night. When i went out this morning, my car in the garage got wet up to a portion of the hood and this usually happens when there are strong rains. I must have slept like a rock not to notice. :D

Typhoon2000.com - BOPHA (26W) Storm Update

Bopha reaches Super Typhoon intensity...moving dangerously towards the Republic of Palau...expected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) this afternoon or early tonight.

Important Note: This howler is similar in strength and track of Super Typhoon Mike (Ruping) which passed over Palau in November 1990. Please take all precautionary measures on this extremely dangerous cyclone. Refer to your national disaster agencies for more details.

Super Typhoon Bopha is expected to continue moving generally west-northwest for the next 24 to 48 hours while maintaining its forward speed...and this motion will continue throughout the forecast period. On the forecast track, the core of Bopha is expected to pass over or very close to Palau Islands early this evening between 7:00-8:00 am Philippine Time...and could be over or very close to Surigao City and Siargao Islands on Tuesday afternoon around sunset. Bopha may start to traverse Central Visayas Tuesday evening, passing in between Bohol and Southern Leyte...and cross Central Cebu after midnight on Wednesday...and over Negros Oriental very near Sagay and Cadiz Cities around sunrise on Wednesday.

Bopha will continue gaining strength during the next 12 to 24 hours...and could become a Category 5 Super Typhoon. A decrease in its strength is forecast beginning Tuesday morning as Bopha moves into an area of lower Ocean Heat Content (OHC) or slightly cooler sea-surface temperatures and begin interaction with the land mass of Mindanao and the Visayas on Wednesday.

Super typhoon na. Better prep up guys, specially in the south.

hope hihina ito before it hit us...

NASA sees 'hot towers' in intensifying Typhoon Bopha

November 30, 2012


Bopha intensified into a typhoon today, Nov. 30, as it continues to affect the islands in Micronesia in the western North Pacific Ocean. NASA's TRMM satellite captured rainfall data of Bopha and noticed "Hot Tower" thunderstorms as it was intensifying from a tropical storm into a typhoon.

When NASA and the Japanese Space Agency's Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite passed over Bopha twice on Nov. 29, and the later data showed that the area of heaviest rainfall had expanded and was still south of the center of circulation. The heaviest rainfall was occurring at a rate of 2 inches/50 millimeters per hour. TRMM data also showed several "hot towers" within Tropical Storm Bopha. A "hot tower" is a tall cumulonimbus cloud that reaches at least to the top of the troposphere, the lowest layer of the atmosphere. It extends approximately nine miles (14.5 km) high in the tropics. The hot towers in Bopha were over 9.3 miles (15 km) high. These towers are called "hot" because they rise to such altitude due to the large amount of latent heat. Water vapor releases this latent heat as it condenses into liquid. NASA research shows that a tropical cyclone with a hot tower in its eyewall was twice as likely to intensify within six or more hours, than a cyclone that lacked a hot tower. It was after TRMM spotted the hot towers in Bopha that the storm intensified into a typhoon.

Forecasters at the Joint Typhoon Warning Center forecast Bopha's center to pass close to Palau on its way to the Visayas region of Philippines by Dec. 4. Residents in the Philippines need to prepare for heavy rains, rough surf and strong winds.

Yung Palau unang makakatikim kay Bopha...hope they can get through it.

Oceania TV News: Palau is Set to Get Lashed By A “One in A Million” Typhoon
Written by By Kassi Berg - Oceaniatv.net Sunday, 02 December 2012 16:28

Palau -The air that now blankets Palau is warm, dry, still, and disturbingly ominous. Palau’s sky has reason to brood for in less than 24 hours Typhoon Bopha is predicted to make landfall on the tiny nation of the Republic of Palau with a near direct hit. This typhoon has been securing strength and intensity while at sea and is expected to be a monster typhoon with a violent entry.

As of 4am on December 2, 2012, this typhoon is predicted to sustain 150-mph winds and 180-mph gusts when it reaches Palau on early morning Monday. If that were not enough, storm force winds extend out from the center to 120 miles and maximum wave height is now estimated at 48 feet.

Typhoon Bopha defies all parameters with intense rainfall, huge diameters and fierce, harnessed winds. Yet, what makes Typhoon Bopha a “typhoon in a million” is that it has developed five-degrees from the equator, an area which is covered by the “Coriolis force.” The Coriolis effect forces a counterclockwise rotation for all storms in the Northern Hemisphere (storms south of the equator rotate clockwise). According to Wikpedia, since records began, only thirteen tropical cyclones have ever existed between 5°N and 5°S of the equator.

Palau lies on the edge of the typhoon belt and has never seen a typhoon of this magnitude.

From radio.....baka daw umabot ng hanggang 175kph pag land fall nito.

F*ck, so it isn't recommendable to have a carwash today? Kala ko pa naman iiwas.
