Always good that we are prepared for stormy weather

THE tropical storm that was anticipated to hit the east coast of the peninsula has fizzled out. It was the tail-end of typhoon Sonamu, which struck the Philippines on Friday, and the authorities were concerned that it might still have some oomph left by the time it reached the shores of the three states on the eastern front Terengganu, Pahang and Kelantan.

We know that the weather is always difficult to predict but is always good to err on the side of caution.
