Rain is Coming

We've had a dry spell in KK for some time until a couple of days ago. Thanks to Typhoon Sepat, a Category 5 super typhoon, we've had a lot of rain for the past few days. Although Sabah is spared from the strong winds from those tropical typhoons hitting the west of the Pacific Ocean (hence the name Land Below the Wind), the strong rain and choppy seas are common. Anyway, those choppy seas can be dangerous to small boats and ships like the small white dot seen in the photo. A calmer version of the same island above is posted here. And if you curious how the typhoons are named, read this.
