Yup, a just a category 1 typhoon, with windspeeds from 74-95 mph. It all depends on which track it takes. If it goes south of Okinawa Honto and moves up the East China Sea on our left coast, we'll feel little effect other than some very ordinary wind and rain. If it crosses directly over the island, we'll get a little stronger wind and rain. Either way, not a beach weekend.

Let's see. Beer, check, snacks, check, water, check.Mmm, food? Lawson's accross the street.

I think we're ready.

Well, we just heard from the weather guys' guys that this is a fast mover. We're already in TCCOR-1, and expected to go into TCCOR-1E tonight. They'll probably push it to TCCOR-1C right after people get off work. Heh. That way, no one gets off work early or is able to go drinking off base (if they live on base) -- those sneaky bastages. We're tying stuff down and going to Jusco for stuff, like donuts...

I let some ppl off work if they needed supplies, had one of them get me supplies too...Rum and Coke. I will be good for a week long typhoon then!

[dk]

"Supplies" lol.

"Hey dude, we need a new shot glass and a deck of cards."

[newvalor]

I can't believe I missing out on this typhoon, 2 weeks til I get back and it has to happen now.

Hey hopefully when it's over it will take whats left with it and get rid of the rainy days finally....
