Typhoon No. 16 (Chaba)
August 31st, 2004
…is closing in fast on us here in Kumamoto (in Kyushu, Southern Japan). I’m stranded here now that all flights have been cancelled, and have joined the rest of the familily to await the storm, which appears to moving right for us. Outside the trees are being whipped into pennants, and before long they’ll be bending at the waist. Looks to be a fun ride!
