Typhoon Man-Yi Coming This Way!
Posted by Kyle Yates in Japan Related, Kansai Area News
A very large category 4, soon to be category 5, typhoon is heading toward Japan. Right now, the winds are pushing 145 mph/233 kph, enough to do some serious damage if it hits land like the weatherman predicts.
If it follows along the predicted path, it should make its way into the Kansai region around Saturday or Sunday.
So tie down any loose things you may have outside because the wind speed may be somewhere around 75 mph/120 kph or more when it arrives.
