Philippines is one of the countries prone to disaster.
(Hawai'i USA): America's 50th state is threatened by not one but *two* major hurricanes! MADELINE is moving WNW with winds of 110 knots (125 mph)—a powerful Cat 3 (Cat 4 Oz). The hurricane's core will pass dangerously close to the Big Island Wednesday, so a Hurricane WATCH is up for the entire island. But you're not out of the woods after MADELINE passes, because a second hurricane is coming hot on its heels. LESTER is even stronger, with winds of 120 knots (140 mph)—a Cat 4 (Cat 4 Oz). LESTER is moving W and is forecast to pass a hair N of the Big Island on Saturday. Again, it's gonna be a close call. Although we have no historical record of a hurricane ever directly hitting the Big Island, there's a first time for everything—so our friends in Hilo and all across the island need to take these threats seriously!
