This storm was too big to be ignored as well as the previous one. Therefore, citizens and companies were prepared for the disaster. JR East, a dominant railway company, decided to make any evening trains out of service.
Asahi Shinbun: JR East, Tokai to cancel trains at night due to typhoon
Railways in Japan are famous for strict and precise administration. It is extremely rare for railway companies to cancel all timetable.
So far, Japanese people have been obsessive to perform their duty. It is a virtue of Japanese. But, excessive sense of responsibility often harms members of the community. So-called over adaptation is a characteristic of Japanese.
I got home early yesterday. Fortunately, I was not struck by the storm.
