Between Hagibis and Mitag
During the last few days (November 20 thru 27, 2007) we felt like Ulysses between Scylla and Charybdis.
Two depressions came over the Pacific (what a name!). First there was a tropical depression, Hagibis, called “Lando” in the Philippines. It passed north of Mindanao, between Negros and Panay. It was only classified as a Tropical Storm.
Then came Mitag, called “Mina” in the Philippines. Still over the waters it already got the label Typhoon. Both closed in on the Philippines.
