ICYMI: For years, women in Japan have been fleeing the countryside to big cities. This appears to be having an outsized impact on Okinawa, with six out of 10 of Japan’s most gender-imbalanced municipalities located on the island chain.

Super Typhoon Surigae is about halfway between Okinawa and the Diato islands.
The core of Surigae is expected to stay ~200 miles SE of Tokyo as it moves NE over the next few days.
Kitadaito Airport is gusting to 59 mph, which is quite impressive given that it's 75 miles away from the eyewall!

I've been to Hateruma. Beautiful island. Ishigaki was the island I lived on in '97. It's the southernmost island of Japan. I haven't made it to Yonaguni yet, which is the westernmost island. You can even see Taiwan on a clear day from Yonaguni. Kitadaito is the easternmost island of Okinawa Pref.

Wonderful! That is amazing. I lived on a remote island of Okinawa called Kitadaito, which only had a population of 500, so I can imagine what that experience might have been like. But the climate and geography were very different. Since Hokkaido and Okinawa are on opposite sides of the country.
