Chriselle 158 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 It's on the same course as the one that really F'ed us up a decade or so ago. Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I remember that typhoon as it was the first big one I experienced. Lots of damage in Numazu and a few deaths in Izu. Hopefully we get through this alright! Link to post Share on other sites
Peetan 10 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Sadly we always seems to lose a couple of people at least, and at worst it causes a landslide. We've already had hiroshima, I remember wakayama a few years back. Makes me glad that I live on the featureless Kanto plain sometimes. This time I'm actually quite worried about te Ontake area; a lot of that very slippery volcanic ash mixed with rain does not equal a happy event. Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully we get through this alright! Ya...we really got smashed here in Ito especially immediately here in Usami by a tornado that formed. I lost a car and had $8k worth of damage to another. Also, had a bunch of damage to the side of the house from roof tiles flying off the neighbors house like frisbees. The car I lost was crushed by another neighbors roof flipping over on top of the car. Link to post Share on other sites

The joys of living so close to the ocean I guess. Link to post Share on other sites

Oh man, I actually live pretty close to Koshigaya, where the tornado hit. One of my friends uploaded her video to YouTube and it got a ton of hits. Might try and fish it out.

Thundercat 60 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Not too bad yet but has been raining like crazy for 24 hrs now. Wind has picked up a bit in the last 30 mins. Actually starting to gust pretty good. We just started getting warnings about the river 200m from my house flooding. Pretty miserable but definitely have had much worse.

snowdude 44 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Eye of the storm is over us with the sun out a little. Some strong gusts but not as bad as other areas, but as the back end pass over us we could get some very very strong winds before it finally passes. Link to post Share on other sites
