Typhoon barrels toward flood-hit western Japan

Even though there are some rotten apples in Japan, I'm glad there are communities that pull together in times like this to help each other and the country.

Oh, what a welcome in my first week in Japan! Is it going to hit Aichi-Ken?

It’s gonna sweep across the coast just south of Tokyo around 5-6pm tomorrow. It is quite a small typhoon, but very intense. It’s also moving very fast, which will most likely change after it makes landfall. Hopefully it will dissipate a lot before it gets to Wakayama and the other flood hit regions. Tokyo is gonna cop the brunt of it though.

currently packing winds of nearly 200 kilometers an hour

This states it's currently 140 K per hour

These people could do with a break. Flooded, then scorched and now a typhoon to look forward to.

What a crappy month.
