Typhoon Fitow
We got completely slammed by Typhoon Fitow last night - fierce winds and driving rain kept all but the bravest confined to the comfort of their homes! While the rain is probably done now and there will be sunny skies tomorrow, this morning saw a disastrous disruption to the transportation system; our local train line is still not running, and the closure of the Tomei expressway has resulted in bumper-to-bumper traffic on our local roads. We managed to help most of our people get to work, and the trains should be running again by noon, but what a way to start a Friday!

Wow! Is this the first typhoon to directly hit you since you've been in Japan? Sounds very exciting.
Yowser. I bet that was something to sit out. Sounds like there are some muddy trails in your future this weekend - if you go out that is. I infer from your post that neither of you was injured and that your friends emerged unscathed as well. Hope the clean up goes well.
