I also noticed the absence of any 'extremely heavy rain' advisory, let alone torrential rain. Perhaps they assume a typhoon warning should be enough? They seem to be taking extraordinary precautions this time though. Taipei has already cancelled all classes and work tomorrow, wisely.

We had a lightening strike directly above us. The circuits all crackled and all of that. The weird thing is that the cat freaked about 1/4 second before it hit, the lightening that is, not the thunder. I think we're cutting them short by granting them only six senses.
