Meteorological history
Doug first formed from a tropical wave off the coast of Mexico on November 27, and rapidly became Tropical Depression 12-E near Baja Sur, and zoomed through the Hawaiian Islands, and moved south to Papua New Guinea. The depression finally became Tropical Storm Doug on December 12. Doug rapidly intensified into a typhoon 2 hours after becoming a tropical storm. Doug became a super typhoon on the 15th, and demolished Guam, but then later weakening into a tropical storm and entering the PAR. Doug later hit Japan and The Philippines at the same time because of the massive size. Doug reached peak of 255 mph, 831 mb (inHg; 17.3) Doug hit Russia and China and Mongolia and Korea on December 25 at 240 mph, a record landfall. Doug killed everyone in Tokyo and Korea and submerged 9/10 halves of China underwater, same with Russia and Korea. Seaports were left behind and gone forever. Doug turned south and killed everyone in Vietnam on December 31. Doug finally dissipated on January 30.
