Old China hands will have noted how Super Typhoon Megi conformed to the Hong Kong stereotype. Having set off from the Philippines for Hainan Island, it veered off at the last moment, ending up in Fujian.

I'm sorry, but to be a real HK typhoon it would have had to bump into another typhoon coming the other way.
But typhoons very rarely collide, to my limited meteorological knowledge. Does that mean they adopt the practice of moving along with their eye focused on a fixed point above the horizon?
They certainly never signal before changing direction.
That would account for half of the local typhoons, foamie. The other half signal as they change direction.
Of those that signal, 80% of them signal left when they are turning right or right when they are turning left.
