If this isn't a T8...

After last week's fiasco, when we basically had an almost direct hit by a Typhoon, the observatory didn't hoist the T8 because it only hit the The Mother Chucking Airport, there's another one on the way:

(What was happening out on the western islands was closer to a Typhoon 10 - Direct hit, with 200kph+ sustained winds.)

If this doesn't result in a T8 on Friday, what will?

UPDATE: Bugger, it's turned south and faded away.
