HONG KONG (Reuters) - Tony Blair flew into Hong Kong Tuesday as it braced for a typhoon that echoed the political storm over Iraq awaiting him at home. <p>Imbudo, the strongest typhoon to hit the Philippines since 1998, is heading toward the south China coast and is expected to close in on the former British colony by late Wednesday. <p>It may even force a premature end to the embattled British prime minister's world trip. Blair may fly out just hours before the wind starts whipping up the harbor waves, instead of on Thursday as planned. <p>Such a stormy ending to a tour that has been overshadowed by the apparent suicide of a government weapons expert -- relayed to Blair on a turbulent flight from Washington to Japan -- could hardly be more symbolic. <p>***Unless, of course, there were dead scientists and falsified intelligence dossiers spinning in the winds. Then, you know, it could be.***
