Sasebo and its satellite properties remain in Tropical Cyclone Condition of Readiness 2. Fleet Activities Sasebo's Facebook page states that TCCOR 1 should be directed at 7 p.m. Expect 69-mph sustained winds and 86-mph gusts between 7 and 11 a.m. Tuesday.

Well, I hope high tide isn't going to be in, if so, with the rising tides during typhoons season, we are going to get hit hard maybe on this one. The river to the ocean is in our back yard here. Been lucky so far, but this on may bring on a new challenge.

They are reporting as of yesterday, that the main concern is rain.

Have an evacuation plan should the water levels rise in your area.

Water insurgency is the main reason for lose of life during storms.

I think you may be the first one to know I like to fish for crappie.

I fish lakes.

Spring and fall are the best times to catch them where I am at.

Lots of fun to catch, and good eating.

Stay safe.
