United Kingdom: David Cameron says evidence is 'growing' for climate change link to storms after typhoon Haiyan

Philippines: Science of storms: The phenomenon that powered typhoon Haiyan

Financial Times: With a maximum sustained wind speed estimated at 195mph (315kph), Haiyan was probably the strongest tropical typhoon to make landfall in recorded history anywhere in the world, meteorologists say. So the immense devastation caused by the winds and even more by the storm surge of seawater they drove onshore is not surprising. There have been a few stronger storms out in the open ocean but well struggle to find a record of anything stronger than Haiyan making landfall, said Julian Heming,...

Mirror: Tropical storm Haiyan built to a crescendo over the Pacific earlier this week before slamming, as a Super Typhoon, into the Philippines south of Manilla yesterday. The island nation was just picking itself up from an earthquake that struck a week or so before, and now is contending with flood, storm and deluge. Breaking lives and destroying communities, Haiyan grew in force steadily, with sustained winds of more than 310 km/h or 195 mph that had developed by Thursday night. It hit land with...
