Typhoon Fanapi


Typhoon Fanapi first hit Taiwan and then slammed into southern China this past week.  So far the typhoon has killed 54 people however mudslides and flooding have endangered many more people.  There are still 42 people still missing in the aftermath of Fanapi.  I stunning 40 inches of rain hit the southern province in Taiwan and it is thought that 10 of millions of dollars in infrastructure has been destroyed.  Notice how the damages are an estimated value and the deaths and those missing are far more accurate just as we had talked about in class.
