Japan counts its typhoons by numbers.
How does your country label storms for the season?
Typhoon season in Japan is in its summer months, with the strongest storms in August, and the most direct hits usually happening more in September.

Kawara
Go to Yamaguchi to get your green soba on one of these kawaras! The bottom soba are crunchy a little bit, and there are toppings that it comes with that you bring into your soba dipping bowl as you take little chunks to eat. Super good. Would eat again. 10/10.
