I saw the damage on Guam after PAKA hit in 1997 or 98. It looked like a nuke hit the joint. All the trees had their leaves gone, as though they dropped their leaves for winter, which in Guam, there is no WINTER. Only thing dropping leaves there are heavy winds packing more than a category 2 or 3 typhoon. This YOLANDA typhoon in Philippines will go beyond a category 5. It broke the meter on this one. YOLANDA is the name called by the Philippines. NOAA is calling it HAIYAN.
