Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post.
I am so sorry that you are going through this. No prison should ever infringe on your First Amendment rights, especially as someone trying to share their story with the outside world. I commend you on your persistence in correcting this, and I hope that things turn out well for you.
Next:Typhoon Kelly, known as Typhoon Oniang in the Philippines, struck Japan during the middle of October 1987. An area of disturbed weather formed along the monsoon trough near Yap on October 6. Although thunderstorm activity was initially displaced from the center, gradual development occurred nevertheless. The disturbance became a tropical depression on October 9, and a tropical storm the next day. While moving generally north-northwest towards Japan, Kelly attained typhoon intensity on October 12. Continuing to intensify, Typhoon Kelly reached its maximum intensity on October 15, but a weakening trend began thereafter. The next day, the typhoon passed over the islands of Shikoku and Honshu. By October 17, Kelly completed its transition into an extratropical cyclone.
Across Japan, the typhoon was responsible for 452 landslides, 20 destroyed bridges, and 165 damaged roads. A total of 216 homes were destroyed, 24,044 houses were flooded, 99 ships were damaged, and 6,802 hectares (16,810 acres) of farmland were damaged. The typhoon killed nine and injured seventeen others. Damage amounted to $365.6 million (1987 USD).
Well well, the storm and the damage done. I hope you appreciate your imact on Asia, and I really appreciate it that you think of me in the event of some wind blowing called Julia :))) Have a great day, Julia
Dear Kelly, great to read from you! So, well, I have to correct you, the question is not why the heck never a storm named Kelly, but why the heck only in the eighties? Here we go: -Severe Tropical Storm Kelly, known in the Philippines as Tropical Storm Daling, was a weak but destructive tropical storm that struck the Philippines in June 1981. A tropical disturbance organized into a tropical depression east of the Philippines on June 28. It tracked westward, reaching tropical storm on June 30 before hitting the central Philippines. Kelly weakened over the islands, but re-strengthened over the South China Sea, nearly attaining typhoon status on July 2. The system passed through the southern Hainan Island on July 3. The cyclone then crossed the Gulf of Tonkin as a weakening tropical storm, and made landfall in northern Vietnam on July 4 as a tropical storm. Kelly dissipated two days later inland. Tropical Storm Kelly was the worst storm to affect the Philippines in eight months. Nine towns in an 6,920 km (4,300 mi) area near the Mayon Volcano sustained flooding. Over 1,450 km (900 mi) of railways lines were washed out. At least 800 homes were destroyed while 3,845 ha (9,500 acres) of rice fields were ruined. More than 3,600 individuals were displaced. Overall, damage totaled to $7.8 million (1981 USD) Then 1984: Typhoon Kelly Category 1 typhoon Duration September 13 – September 19 Peak intensity 130 km/h (80 mph) (10-min); 965 hPa (mbar) Developing at the southern end of a shear line, a low level circulation formed on September 13 with increasing convective organization to the south of a cold core cyclone. Completing a cyclonic loop, the cyclone continued to develop despite cool air becoming entrained within its circulation. Approaching the upper-level low, Kelly slowed down its northward motion and reached its maximum intensity. Soon afterwards, it rapidly accelerated northeast. Losing its tropical character late on September 17, it became an extratropical cyclone on the morning of September 18. This cyclone continued moving northeast for another few days, past the International Date Line and into the Gulf of Alaska.
Ciao (Hi in Italian) James! Thanks for your reply. I hope you are reasonably well, although I can imagine it is hard living in a prison. I am pleased to hear you like what I wrote about Italy. In the previous letter I told you of the Northen part of Italy, this time I will tell you something about Centre Italy. In central Italy you can truly breathe Italian culture. It is the place where the Italian language and literature was born. Central Italy is made up of four regions: Tuscany, Lazio, Umbria and Marche. It is the narrowest part of the Italian peninsula, flanked by the Tyrrhenian Sea to the west and the Adriatic Sea to the east (there are nice tourist towns along the coasts with lovely beaches). In addition, there are many historic cities full of precious monuments, such as Rome, Florence, Siena, Assisi, Urbino, just to name the most famous. It is also the part of Italy where the Catholic religion was born, Rome is the seat of the Pope and furthermore central Italy for centuries was a State controlled by the Pope. Although I live in Northern Italy and my family has Northern Italian origins, I have no problem in saying that central Italy is the most beautiful place in Italy to live. I would like to live there. I don't know much about the Italian school system because I don't have children, however school is compulsory until the age of 16. Unfortunately, there have been many deaths from Covid in Italy, particularly in Northern Italy where I live. A region called Lombardy was especially affected. It's amazing that there are 32 prisons in California. It is a shame that there are so many crimes, given that people's desire is to have a peaceful life. The summer in northern Italy was very hot and sunny this year, until Sept 17th I was able to go out for a walk with just a t-shirt and shorts on. The temperature is cooler now. Best regards. Alberto

I hope all is well. Take care now.
