We are not likely to be hit very hard, but a typhoon is headed in our direction. Generally speaking, the winds are stronger for us when the storm approaches from the west, as this one will. According to the current prediction, however, the worst of the storm is likely to miss Kumamoto. Even if the winds are not extremely severe, we may get a lot of rain. Please do your best to follow developments.
