Typhoon Rananim is now decaying over east-central China. As the
storm neared the coast of China Thursday, a small island,
Ta-chen-tao, just off the coast had sustained winds of 80 mph and
rainfall over a 24 hour period was 7.09 inches. Rananim brought very
heavy rainfall across the province of Zhejiang as it moved inland.

Hurricane Charley continues to intensify as it moved from the
Caribbean Sea into southeast Gulf of Mexico. On Thursday Charley came
