Typhoon

Tokyo, Japan

Heavy rain from the approaching typhoon Shanshan, from the hotel window.
And last year was Albuquerque.

12 hours ago at the time of writing: "At least six people have been killed and more than 100 injured after Typhoon Shanshan made landfall in the south-western Japan on Thursday.

Now downgraded to a tropical storm, Shanshan is still packing winds of 90km/h (56mph).
...
After making landfall, the typhoon weakened to a severe tropical storm, but it is still pummelling its way north-east. Up to 300mm (12in) of rainfall is expected in places in the next 24 hours."

Sooooo... probably not the OPTIMAL time to be in Japan for a holiday unfortunately, but who can predict these things weeks out? I hope you stay safe and dry. And if not, there will be a chance to dry out when you get back to Perth.
