    Idiots. Ferry operators already knew a typhoon was in the area, the weather forecasting could not predict it would change from going West to North within an hour.

    If we sue the Weather Office each time the weather is not as predicted they would go to court every week...
    As there are typhoons there every year, they perfectly know that the typhoon may not follow the predicted route!
    Best regards.
