After devastating the Philippines, Typhoon Haiyan is now
unleashing its final blow across northeastern Vietnam and southern
China.
Haiyan is no longer the extremely powerful typhoon it was when it
tore through the Philippines. However, Haiyan's strength is still equal
to that of a Category 1 hurricane in the Atlantic Ocean.
Landfall of Haiyan is expected around midnight Monday local time
(noon Sunday EST) between the Vietnamese city of Haiphong and the China
border.
Despite weakening, the storm is likely to bring heavy rainfall, flooding, mudslides and also stronger wind gusts.
Rainfall over parts of northeastern Vietnam into southern China will
be in the 100 to 200 mm (4 to 8 inches) range, and some areas may
receive over 300 mm (12 inches) with this storm as it weakens over
southern China through Monday night. This will likely cause some
mudslides in far northern Vietnam and southern China.

It's all Hun Sen's fault. Without deforestation by CPP, there would be no Typhoon in the Philippines.
