Super Typhoon MA-ON
Posted by hanna on 7/17/2011, 2:06 pm
Has shifted, it looks like Wakayama of the Kansai region of Honshu will be hit; the island of Shikoku might be brushed.  Ma-On jumps from a
cat 3  to a cat 4 and then to a cat 3 before getting to the Kansai region.  

The Kansai region comprises 10% of Japan's land area, with 24 million residents, 18% of Japan's population. It consists of eight prefectures;
Osaka, Hyogo, Kyoto, Shiga, Nara, Wakayama, Mie, and Tokushima. The major cities of Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto, Ohtsu, Nara, Wakayama, Tsu,
and Tokushima are all located in the Kansai region.  http://www.biobridge-kansai.com/about/outline.php

The area looks quite beautiful.  I pray this monster misses them all together.
