This year’s typhoon season seemed to be starting a little late. But now it seems we will get our first glancing blow of a tropical storm. Until Storm 10W (Ten), no storm had taken the turn up the coast of Japan. This looks like the first of the season. It doesn’t look like it will get to typhoon status, but it looks like we could get some pretty heavy rain. As always, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center provides good information, as does the JMA.

Here’s a picture of the path from the JTWC of Storm 10W (Ten).

All day today it looked like rain was right around the corner. Certainly western Japan is getting dumped on, but the wind seems to be moving the precipitation around Nagoya.
