The storm is actually quite large in size - a Twitter picture had it side by side alongside Katrina and they were similar in size.

For a comparison in the US, Tacloban would be similar in size (urbanized area) to Lake Charles, LA or Wilmington, NC.

I really don't like how close to the water Jim Edds was. Photo from a couple hours ago when first light broke:

Edit:
He was near Tacloban, just east of it I believe.

With the speed this is moving, I'm concerned it'll make it over the water without much weakening. :eek:

Doesn't look like enough land to cripple it though.

Not that it matters compared to other things, but, I believe he was in Tacloban, looking east out toward the water, as the city's eastern boundary IS the water. As posted by Edds:

I know! It already looks like it'll be moving over water within an hour or so. And I'm almost certain those little channels are warm between the islands. Don't think we'll see anything like this on Earth for another decade or more.

Yeah, looks like he is in the eastern part of the city, almost right on the beach in a hotel. Not sure how tall the hotel is, a couple stories at least.

Cebu radar appears to have gone offline. It's been about an hour since the last update. Here's the last image:
