    Typhoon Fitow slams into China

    Still wishing for a (super) typhoon to hit HK directly? Don't think of what might happen to your typical high rise but places like Tai O and other low-lying villages close to the coast.
    INXS and Watercooler like this.

    And I'll just wait for the "typhoons-are-nothing" folks to show up here soon enough to dismiss this storm.

    I don't either, but I do often wonder each time if the Big Buddha would offer protection from the storm if it really hit hard. I mean, that thing is HUGE and looks pretty strong, hardly anything would blow it off its pedestal. I was thinking it would make a great typhoon shelter for the south Lantau masses.
