Hi :) I'm a Wikipedian. I'm interested in Tropical cyclones, Geography, and Politics, I hope one day to become an accountant or a damage assessor, or maybe a politician. I regularly edit on DYK, GA, and all things between. Thank you for visiting my user page :)
Severe Tropical Storm Talas was a tropical cyclone that impacted Vietnam during mid-July 2017. Talas was first tracked as a tropical disturbance over in the South China Sea on July 13 and was upgraded to a tropical depression during the next day. The depression intensified into a named storm of the 2017 Pacific typhoon season during July 15. Before making landfall in Vietnam, Talas reached its peak intensity as a severe tropical storm during July 16. Talas weakened to an area of low pressure on July 17 inland. Throughout Vietnam, the storm killed 14 people and damaged around 2,700 houses. Rough seas sank about 50 boats. Nearly 50,000 hectares (120,000 acres) of vegetable fields, about 800 hectares (2,000 acres) of aquaculture, and 47,600 hectares (118,000 acres) of rice and subsidiary crops were damaged. The storm also caused US$8.8 million damage in Hainanprovince in China, increased rainfall in Myanmar and Thailand, and caused landslides and flooding in areas of Central and Northern Laos.
