Tues., Aug. 23 Windy
A typhoon
Could not sleep well last night.Following the warning of a typhoon yesterday evening,a severe typhoon passed through the Hengchun district around midnight.The velocity of the wind was over 30 meters per second, and,the lights having failed,it was pitch-dark.Fortunately,however,it is said that no serious damage was done except for some floods which visited mountain districts.But it must have been a horrible experience for those living in the Hengchun area.
八月二十三日 星期二 有風
臺風來了
昨晚無法安睡。緊接著昨天傍晚的臺風警報后,一陣強烈臺風約在半夜時通過恒春地區。風速超過每秒30米,而且,由于停電,四周漆黑。然而,慶幸的是,據報除了山區的一些洪水以外,沒有造成重大的損害。但是對于那些住在恒春地區的人,一定是個可怕的經歷。
