BBC coverage of Pakistan and China.
From the AP Wrote:Floods and landslides across Asia plunged millions into misery Sunday as rubble-strewn waters killed at least 127 in northwestern China and 4 million Pakistanis faced food shortages amid their country's worst-ever flooding.
In Indian-controlled Kashmir, rescuers raced to find 500 people still missing in flash floods that have already killed 132, while North Korea's state media said high waters had destroyed thousands of homes and damaged crops.
Just read about this and felt compelled to share it. Words fail me at the moment, so I'll just say that I'm praying for all those affected and will be doing whatever I can.

Lots of crazy weather going on. How about those fires in Russia started from drained peat marshes? I find this video particularly riveting.
