Korea Typhoon

The last storm that I talked about just kept going straight eastward toward Korea. The experts say that is unusual since typhoons usually turn north or south before slamming into land. This one just took a straight and steady course. Hitting Korea is also unusual. They weren’t as prepared for it as Hong Kong or Japan and now there are some reports of damage and a few people died.

Korea is mostly protected by Japan the way Hong Kong is protected by the Philippines and Taiwan. A typhoon has to work hard to get to either of us. Unfortunately for the people of Korea, this one was a hard worker.

No hate, please. There's enough of that in the world already.
