Looks like Ioke is going to do bad things to poor little Wake Island.
That island has had a hard history, it may end tonight.
Bad Ioke on Wake.
See The Intersection and Wunderblog
bonus if you can spot the island - hint upper left...
Wake Island is 19N 167E - the eye is just about to hit...
I spent my formative years there -- 1966 to 1969, roughly. Weathered a typhoon as well. I remember being under an upturned couch with my brother, both of us in our pajamas, with at least an inch or two of seawater on the floor and the roof coming off the house. I still have pictures somewhere of the devastation.
