Scores dead in Vietnam floods
| Quote From Source: | HANOI (Reuters) - Flash floods and landslides brought by tropical storm Kammuri since Saturday have battered mountainous villages in northern Vietnam, killing more than 100 people and leaving 48 missing, the government said on Monday.
The toll from the disaster is expected to rise. Communication links were still cut off for many affected areas even though river waters were receding after nearing their highest level in four decades, disaster officials said.
A tropical low-pressure system in the Tonkin Gulf and moving towards the northern region, would dump heavy rains and trigger landslides from late Monday, the government said in an urgent message to the military, police and rescue forces.

They should take the warning labels off of everything and let stupidity sort itself out.
