Strongest ever recorded Typhoon that hit north Tip of Cebu island. • Here in Gabi Cordova is how the winds where at the families house where we all gathered for protection and comfort. We where prepared for the worst...the worst stayed north. • We are fine, house is fine, many trees down and power is still out in our location. • Clean up Begins...great to be alive. • Super Typhoon Haiyan or Yolanda as the Philippines calls it was/is one of the most intense typhoons ever recorded whipped the Philippines Friday, killing many near the eye and terrifying millions around as monster winds tore roofs off buildings, fell trees and giant wind and waves that washed away flimsy homes. • Thoughts and prayers to all affected. • The Philippines was hit with a super typhoon today. With waves as high as 15 feet and winds estimated as strong as 195 mph (and 235 mph gusts), typhoon Haiyan could be the strongest tropical cyclone in history—depending on which metrics you're looking at. • The island country is no stranger to typhoons, having already weathered 25 so far this year. But with winds higher than 150 mph, Haiyan qualifies as a super typhoon (which is actually a real term, unlike superstorm ). The New York Times reports that the storm traveled across the country at a speed of about 25 mph. Such a speed actually decreases the possibility of landslides and the impacts of rain, which are major causes of deaths. • This image was taken by geostationary satellites of the Japan Meteorology Agency and EUMETSAT at around 8:00 a.m. EST (13:00 UTC) yesterday as Haiyan made its approach toward the Philippines. http://www.popsci.com/article/science...
