Typhoons 2017

Post some pics :slight_smile:

If you let windy predict then it will not hit Taiwan, turn northeast before China and make landfall in Japan.

Neihu. Balcony facing north is fairly covered in water and has a decent amount of sediment on it though other side looks like nothing happened.

Taiwan’s cwb is also predicting the same. I’m not betting on a typhoon day for northern Taiwan.

Stand by then! gotta wait till Saturday for the big stuff.

Oops, rode my scooter to work. In my defense, it was really nice and cool outside.

Eh, so far so good. Hope it just doesn’t deteriorate later in the evening. Like, when we get off work.

And I trust you are not a daredevil a la Jesus.

It’s far and we’re on the weaker side. No worries guys.

Same. It was a nice ride this morning!

I saw it was coming down hard before I left home, so I got all rain jacket and pantsed up to scoots. The full 15 minute commute, no rain. I’m grabbing my morning coffee and it’s pouring.

I think the typhoons have become sentient and they are actively dodging Taiwan to avoid a premature death…

So did everyone survive this cataclysmic event?

Hey! These things can and do change directions. Do not tempt them!

Yeah, I was thinking that just last night when it stalled. What if it pulls a Nari and comes back from our blind side? Kaput.

it’s still just sitting right there, just above Taiwan…

I just checked CWB and saw that they have this prompt in Chinese when you open up the homepage, but no English translation. :frowning:

It has strengthened a lot after missing Taiwan. Looks like it will spare Shanghai, thanks for ruining my great pun, asshole typhoon -_-

IT WILL NOT TURN OUR DIRECTION.

Anyone who SUGGESTS this typhoon may turn and head back to Taiwan AUTOMATICALLY accepts a bet with me for 20000nt, which I will win under any circumstance that doesn’t involve the eye of the storm passing above my house in Yilan.

As long as there is a 0.00000000001% chance it won’t turn back, I’m good.

With the luck we’ve been getting with typhoons missing us, but the rain ruining our weekends and the relevance of that to the eye of the storm passing over Black Yilan-der Voodoo Magic HQ…I say your 20,000NT is as good as yours.
