Typhoon #15
Sep
21
Our schools were closed today due to typhoon #15, which is moving up the east coast of Japan. Though it came quite close to Nagoya & Ichinomiya, in the end there wasn`t much rain or wind around here - the conditions on the right side of the typhoon were much worse than here on the left, because typhoons turn anti-clockwise [hidari mawari].
Did you know? In Australia, typhoons are called cyclones, and they turn clockwise [migi mawari]. In the USA, they`re called hurricanes.
If you`re a Wednesday Teragoya student, we apologize for any inconvenience.
