Be happy. My first typhoon was Vera in September 1959 that left our house split in two by a tree and severe water damage. We rode it out in one bedroom with blankets on the doors and windows. It was the most severe typhoon that hit Japan in the modern era.

I’ve been through several typhoons, 8 to 10 of them. This was different. The forecast was for the strongest typhoon in 20 years. The forecasters really missed this one. The island is closed down for a missed forecast. It cost Guam millions in canceled flights and lost tourist revenue
