Trio of Tropical Cyclones in the Pacific take aim at Hawaii, South Korea and Japan

Source: Washington Post

Three tropical cyclones are lined up in the Pacific Ocean, and one, Hurricane Lane, may hit Hawaii in a few days. The other two, Typhoons Soulik and Cimaron, will crash into east Asia, directly affecting South Korea and Japan later this week.

All three storms contain winds of at least 74 mph, indicating hurricane strength (typhoons and hurricanes are the same kind of storm, but have different names depending on the section of ocean they traverse). Typhoons Soulik and Cimaron are on a collision course with the Asian continent, and effects from torrential rain, strong winds, and dangerous surf appear unavoidable.

The cyclone bearing down on Japan, Soulik, is the big one, but the one near Korea, Cimaron, will hit heavily populated areas, last one was 4 years ago.

For so many reasons, what is the fucking point of responding to any Unhinged Trump tweet thread?

My pledge today is never to do so ever again, until we can publicly unravel the entire criminal enterprise, starting in January. So I say in the meantime that unravelling these shit stained balls of Twitter yarn is more than pointless...just leaving behind energy wasted, and hands shit stained, until the next ball is tossed out.

Really?

That is all.
