Yeah, very strong winds!
But it’ll be past Tokyo soon.
Hopefully Fukushima will be fine when the typhoon gets up there!

Thanks.
Yes, we have some emergency supplies. Hopefully, we won’t be needing them. This typhoon is forecast to pass Tokyo by noon tomorrow (it’s 10:30PM now.)
I’ll “tweet” as often as I can.

Everyone in mainland Japan should stay indoors until it passes!
