I think I need to update myself on all those #typhoon's & #hurricane's 'cuz they've multiplied like crazy 😬

JMA is now tracking not one, not two, but THREE typhoons in East Asia. No.10 (#Damrey) has swifted back away from Japan, whereas No.11 (#Haikul) is expected to hit Okinawa in 3-4 days. Typhoon No.9 (#Saola) has been constantly drifting around Philippines, I can't think how much rain it already dumped to Manila 😬

About the names of the storms:

• #Saola (sao la) is the Vietnamese word for #spindlehorn, a.k.a. Asian Unicorn, a critically endangered bovine native to Vietnam and Laos.
• #Damrey (ដំរី) is the Khmer word for #elephant.
• #Haikui (海葵) is the Chinese word for #SeaAnemone, a marine invertibrate related to corals and jellyfish.
