AnOtHEr TyPHoOn iN taIWaN

I scanned through the headline news in Taiwan on the internet today, and I saw that there's going to be a typhoon called "龍王" passing through on Friday. Following paragraph is quoted from the website of The China Post:

New typhoon expected on weekend: CWB

The Central Weather Bureau (CWB) suggested yesterday that people in Taiwan come up with alternative recreational programs if they had mapped out outdoor plans for the weekend.

The center of Longwang (King Dragon), named after the god of water and rain in Chinese mythology, was about 873 km (543 miles) east-southeast of Naha on Japan's Okinawa island chain at 9 a.m. local time Thursday, the Pacific regional Joint Typhoon Warning Center said, in the latest advisory on its Web site.

The bureau will decide later today if to issue a sea warning around Taiwan, depending on the new weather development.

The weather here in Terre Haute is getting colder. The highest temperature today was 64 °F, which is less than 20 °C. I'm so glad that I only have one class today. Although the weather is cold, we can always use hot water in the restrooms. The restrooms in the States, no matter if it's a public restroom or not, they all have hot water coming out from the taps. It's really different from the ones we have in Taiwan. In public restrooms, expect for some of restaurants, it's nearly impossible to have hot water. And it seems that they also have hot water to use in Japanen. This makes me curious about the reason why we don't get to use hot water in public restrooms in Taiwan.

If you happen to know it, please tell me what was going on.
