This is what we're looking at this morning as we talk to different missionaries regarding the weather. Garry is hoping to fly down south to take some folks home and bring some others to town, but it doesn't look very promising at this point.

We ask our locations for a weather report and also look at the satellite picture for an overview. Palawan is the long, skinny island on the south-west corner of the Philippines, presently covered in a dark purple spot! This shows the intensity of the weather by color-- the more red, the more severe. And the swirling effect is a typhoon that is pulling the weather toward it in circles. Weather is pretty amazing!

The boys and I are off to school now... reading aloud, then breakfast, and then the rest of our desk work. We're all thankful it's cool today-- what a blessing! We trust you have a good day also!
