CE: Typhoon Roke

Disaster happened in Japan again. After the huge earthquake that happened in May this year, now it comes  again with the rain.
Typhoon Roke struck the city of Nagoya, central Japan and made more than one million people to leave the city on Tuesday. The heavy rain continued on cutting through  past Tokyo on Wednesday. It made transportation really difficult for the citizens there, and affected more than  millions of  passengers. This is the second biggest storm to hit Japan this month after Typhoon Talas hit western Japan and left about 100 people dead or missing. About two to four typhoons happened this year already. Typhoon Roke left six people dead, and six others missing after the pounding rain. 


The rain also caused a lot of trees in Nagoya to fall down, and destroyed a lot of electricity cables. The heavy rains also caused lots of housed damaged, and bursting rivers banks. Earlier this month, Typhoon Talas already invaded central Japan, killed at least one thousands people.

It is sad to hear bad news again from Japan, which they had an convulse earthquake in May, and affected a lot of people and their land. Now the new storms, Typhoon Roke and Typhoon Talas had struck and killed so much people again, Japan will need a lot of help to rebuild and reorganize the things.  The land is still recovering and the houses are not all rebuild yet. Some people are still trying to rebuild their home, but now rain has made big changes again to the progress they've built.
