    Looking at Google Maps..... Gee. I wonder why the west coast have many cities while the east coast is sparsely populated? Much greener too.
    Wondering why the forecast show the storm strength won't be affected too much by the Sierra Madre mountain ranges and why it will take the storm 3 days to cross Luzon... that's what people are worried about. Only good thing is it will pass over the water sheds that need the rain.

    El Nino year? Stronger, warmer current right where typhoon development occurs and warm water is what fuels typhoons.

    2015-2016 is expected to be an El Nino year. Sample:

    El Nino is a warm(er) water current. Typhoon development normally start off the coastal waters of western South America in the same way hurricane development start off the west coast of Africa. Look where that El Nino current is located. Right smack where typhoons first start to develop.

    Droughts? That is normally caused by something else.

    Edit:

    The tropical systems start out as tropical waves. Depending on atmospheric conditions very high up, there may be a Tropical Upper Tropospheric Trough (TUTT) present above the path the tropical waves take. If a tropical wave passes underneath a TUTT, there's a good chance the tropical wave will intensify into a depression/storm/typhoon. With an El Nino year, there is normally an increase in the formation of tropical waves.

    Weather on the east is more harsh. Accessibility is harder too as you have to cut through the Sierra Madres.
