New Year's gift for you! Hatsumode at Jishui-jinja Shrine 2023

New Year's gift for you! Hatsumode at Jishui-jinja Shrine 2023 Dam log

Last year 2022 brought record rainfall in the Tohoku region due to high water temperatures in the Sea of Japan and high water vapor, and Typhoon No. 14, which occurred in September, had a central pressure of 910 hectopascals and grew to be called a super typhoon. It is said that it could have caused even more damage had it not been for the prior release of water from dams.

Typhoon No. 15 brought a linear precipitation zone to Shizuoka Prefecture, resulting in heavy rainfall that exceeded the normal rainfall for September in just one day. Two transmission towers were toppled by landslides, and the Jougenji intake for water supply from the Okitsu River was blocked by driftwood and other obstacles, cutting off water to more than 60,000 households and causing damage to infrastructure. In Shizuoka Prefecture, three people were killed and more than 5,000 houses were flooded above floor level, resulting in greater damage than expected.

We would like to reiterate our deepest sympathies to all those affected by last year's disasters, including the above.

As a non-professional flood control specialist, my only recourse is to ask God for help, but this year I paid another first visit to the flood control shrine in Kaizu City, Gifu Prefecture.

What?" Last year there were three?" If you thought so, you're right! You are indeed correct. It seems that the high cost of living has spread to amulets as well, and the price of one amulet was 300 yen until last year, but now it is 500 yen, so we will only give out two. (I am planning this event within my allowance... please understand)

And this year, we're giving away a Release Alert T-shirt to one lucky winner! (See theClick here for T-shirt details)
