Flooding in Kyushu

Some of you may have heard about the serious flooding that our island of Kyushu is getting. We don't really know how much rain the rainy season normally gets, but apparently this last week was really heavy. The rains certainly aren't just overcast and drizzly - it can come down really hard and for days at a time.  The really badly flooded areas are about 2 hours north of us. Our area hasn't been affected by flooding yet, and we live up on a hill. So even if it gets bad here, I think we'll be okay. We haven't had any warnings or anything yet, but will keep you posted if anything happens here.
