A typhoon that was near Okinawa, boomeranged and came back towards Honshu.
It hit Tohoku and Hokkaido on Tuesday.
Can you believe that this is the 3rd or 4th (I can't remember) typhoon to hit Hokkaido this year?! They almost never get typhoons their way.
Tons of melons, pears, potatoes and onions, wasted by the storm.
I hope these farmers will be able to make ends meet.
Tuesday, the weather was cool! Like 10 degrees different from what we've been experiencing AND no humidity.
We had a notice that the gas company would be coming between 9:00-17:00 to change our meter.
Satoshi called them on Sunday to see if they could come in the morning.
The guy on the other end, said that he would put us down for the morning as a request, but wasn't sure when the guy doing the actual job would be able to come by.
9:15, the guy to change the meter came...9:30 he was finished and moved on to another resident's apartment! Whoo!
Talk about efficient.
Since the weather was so nice, I went for a walk. First time, since coming back from Hawaii.
Was nice to get out and about.
I hear that the temps will go back up later this week, so will enjoy this cooler weather while I can.
How are things where you are?
Awwww, that's the exact area we're visiting. We'll try our best to spend lots of money there.
ReplyDeleteWe had a light sprinkle the other day but the temps are still averaging 27-30° daily. I am just glad or no rain and hailstorms!
