Ack, it's flooding there? I heard about the quake a few days ago.
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:20:36.000Z
yeah this is on top of though (though afaik nobody got hurt in the quake and the friend i asked about it said it wasn't really a big deal)
SᏋPH
2012-06-12T04:22:30.000Z
Yeah, I heard it was like a 6. quake. But didn't hear much about it afterwards.
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:24:16.000Z
apparently people felt it all across the island but there wasn't any actual damage? it was off the north east coast iirc maybe far enough
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:24:26.000Z
that it wasn't super strong on the island
SᏋPH
2012-06-12T04:25:17.000Z
well, how about this flood? How bad is it?
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:27:25.000Z
PRETTY BAD though not like a crisis or anything
SᏋPH
2012-06-12T04:28:51.000Z
Okay, as long as it's not like... Japan.
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:29:28.000Z
yeah no it's not like that
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:29:35.000Z
ONLY FOUR PEOPLE DEAD SO FAR though that still fucking sucks
SᏋPH
2012-06-12T04:29:52.000Z
Yeah.. this just happened when?
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:31:18.000Z
it's happening right now
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:31:47.000Z
i found out about it 'cause the taiwanese news feeds i follow on plurk were announcing school closures in taibei and gaoxiong
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:31:56.000Z
(which like i said are on opposite sides of the freaking country)
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:32:01.000Z
and then CNN had a thing
SᏋPH
2012-06-12T04:42:28.000Z
I guess it's cause they're both coastal?
SᏋPH
2012-06-12T04:42:38.000Z
Then again, Taiwan is an island, everything's coastal.
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T04:44:52.000Z
everything is sorta costal but yeah i am guessing one giant ass storm

SPARDASON
2012-06-12T06:22:56.000Z
afaik the deaths happened in taichung county and uh I FORGET THE OTHER PLACE but some rural area definitely not taibei
SPARDASON
2012-06-12T06:23:50.000Z
