Typhoons 2021

Plenty of rain overnight in Danshui. Pouring down right now.

I’m in Hualien. I left late afternoon yesterday (Friday). Overcast here but no rain. I guess I got out just in time.

So you ran away from the rain and now wait there for the next Earthquake.

Typhoon In-Fa has brought some lovely temps to Taipei. Woke to a nice cool morning today. Nice break from the baking heat we’ve had lately.

These are probably the coolest temperatures I’ve felt in Taipei for months. It’s great!

Its a shock to step into the shower and find that the water is actually quite cool too. So far I have resisted moving the tap from the coldest setting though.

And enjoy it while it lasts. Forecast high tomorrow is 36/97 and more coming next week.

Who does that in the middle of typhoon season?

Most mornings are cool. Like around 6:00 -6:30AM

Lots of us. We miss the old days when typhoons were typhoons and men were scared.

They used to do ‘river projects’ before typhoon season, not in the middle. But yeah, we haven’t had a serious typhoon the last couple of years so just do it now, we won’t have one this year.

It’s a multi year project so will see a few typhoon seasons, project management so far actually looks exceptionally good.

Are we done yet?

Yes.

Thus endeth another Taiwan Typhoon.

A Thankfully mild one that still supplied some rain water.

Reservoir levels at present - but note that this wouldn’t even include most of the rain from the past couple of days.
