I'll never figure this shit out. Why can't we start building houses like bunkers.
Okinawa sits in typhoon alley between mainland Japan and Taiwan. You pretty much expect it to get skirted by atleast 3-6 typhoons every year, sometimes dead on. In the 4 yrs I was there, we had 3 cat 4-5 typhoons roll over the island, one of them over the base. Whole place is built with cement. Takes a beating from typhoons and 7.0-8.0 earthquakes.
