Courtesy of the DMSP satellite... an image of an ash plume from the Anathan volcano to the northeast of Typhoon Nesat. (I've kinda circled the ash plume for easy identification)

Here's a pic of Typhoon Yunya in 1991. Category 3 Typhoon Yunya happened to be heading towards the Philippines just as Mt. Pinatubo was erupting.

Ash from Pinatubo became incorporated into the circulation of Yunya. This resulted in the ash being spread over a large area and mixing with the rain to form a thick mud.

Talk about bad timing.
