Hi Jay, I see you're under Flag #8 for the moment. Typhoon Dujuan (azalea, in English) is moving extremely fast now, with a forward speed just shy of 20 knots. Winds are estimated to be between 120 and 130 knots (roughly 145 mph) with gusts to 150 knots (roughly 165 mph) making Dujuan a very dangerous category 4 storm, with the not so remote possibility of becoming category 5 (taking into account the forward speed of the storm). Most forecasters are projecting a landfall somewhere very near the Pearl River Estuary, which I think is at the west end of Hong Kong (you reside in the southeast part of the island, no?), which means the storm must pass over you to get to Pearl River, no? Keep us posted on how things go. And keep your head low and out of the way of blowing stop signs... KJC
