How you guys deal/manage/cope with all that rain?
Any techniques, any insider tips, any citizen tricks hehehe, you get the point.
I don't mind rain except for when my sneakers/shoes get wet, is sooo annoying... :bleh:

It has been a real wet rainy day in Kyoto and most of Japan.
a bit humid and constant rain. I've been told there has been a typhoon in the Okinawa area, and i am not sure the direct affect on Kyoto and Tokyo, but i do know, it has been rainy as a result of the typhoon. Tomorrow i head back to Tokyo via Shinkansen as i expect rain there as well. I only seen the sun briefly a few times during my 2 week stay. I have to say i do miss the sunny blue skys of Orange County.

Hi qilver! :woot:

Sorry to hear that you are experiencing so much rain while you are visiting Japan. My friend who lives near Kobe said that the typhoon should hit their area on Sunday morning. Please stay safe and enjoy the rest of your vacation in Japan. :)

We are finally over our heatwave and have some nice (humid-free) weather in the 80s F. :woot: :dancing:

hello enna....i am aware of the typhoon, and not sure how it will affect the departure, but if we have to delay it...it will just mean extra stay in Japan, which i don't mind really, i will miss japan though, until next trip.

When are you due to leave Japan? I hope the weather cooperates and you have a safe trip back to your sunny DRY Orange County! :victory: :woot: :dancing:

Is your trip over already? Has it been two weeks?

Yow. :sweat:

Thanks to Typhoon Man Yi it's been raining in Tokyo all day. It started out as a light rain but has gotten gradually heavier. I think it's about time we got some decent rain but I wish it wasn't during a 3-day weekend. The Yokohama Hanabi (fireworks) scheduled for tomorrow will be canceled I presume. My friends and I were looking forward to it. :mecry:

Other than rain, the high temp was 24 C (I think that's about 78 F ?) with comfortable humidity. [I'm gonna hate the high humidity and temp after the rainy season ends. :sweat: ]

Well, might as well make use of a rainy day and read manga and listen to cds on the stereo. :)

Hi don,

I hope you and everyone stays safe during this Typhoon Man Yi in Japan now. :victory:

We are having a very nice saturday. Low humidity and temps in the 80F. Great beach or cook-out day on lovely Long Island! :woot:
15 Jul 2007, 00:24 #7032
ah i see the sun still exists! ;)
15 Jul 2007, 01:59 #7033
80F, 60% humidity, and a 7mph breeze... Wonderful. :thumbsup:
15 Jul 2007, 09:14 #7034
It was sorta chilly today at 21 C. Long sleeves, pants, and socks definitely needed.

Hi Enna, thanks for your kind thought. The weather in Long Island sounds great. I love those Long Island Iced Teas. :mrgreen:

Well, I think its been raining moderately heavy all night. The city must be getting a good rinse out. It'll sparkle once the rain stops. :) Humidity is up today, 92% according to the weather channel but temp is about the same as yesterday. It feels balmy but cool. Not bad enough to turn on the a/c.

Don't want to stay cooped in the apartment again, today. Fortunately, the subways have direct exits to stores and theaters so I won't get too wet when I go out. The 5 min. walk to the subway station would be the most I have to worry about. Thank goodness for Timberland waterproof boots. :victory: I need to think of something to do: :headscratch: Harry Potter? :shakehead: Pirates of the Carribean? :tired: Saiyuki? :bored: Maiko Haaaan? :rolleyes: Shopping and cafe? :dancing: Okay, its decided. :applaud: I'll do my kanji/Japanesee study for about an hour then I'm out of here. Just in time for lunch at the Dubliner's Pub (they serve breakfast all day). Or should I go to MOS burger? Or Freshness Burger? :confused: I'm gonna have to think about this some more. =T

92% humidity, sounds awful. :bleh:

I'd love to try the bunless or rice burgers at MOS. :drooling:


Here, raining and cold. :shamefulcry:

a typhoon which had been downgraded to a tropical storm was fastly approaching the Tokyo area, as my flight was departing. Other than a light wind, and constant rain downfall, i really didn't notice too much of a difference. the weather was in the 70's, and medium humidity.
I didn't see much of the sun while in Japan, as it is rainy season.

back in LA, and there is plenty of sunshine, about 80 degrees.
16 Jul 2007, 23:31 #7038
sorta cold....for summer...at 23 celsius..
17 Jul 2007, 01:42 #7039

17 Jul 2007, 07:15 #7040
