The typhoon
The typhoon passed by our town last night. Fortunately the center of the typhoon was a bit far from our city. Nevertheless, there was a lot of rain in a short time, the large river in the vicinity exceeded the flood dangerous water area and was reported in national news. Water accumulated on the streets in some places, and I saw people walking by immersing in the water to the knees. But my house stands little away from center of the city and with a little high altitude. So my house was safe. This time wind was not so strong here as we worried. That is one reason why there was not any damage here. However, I knew on TV, that there were lots of damages at other places. I feel very sorry for the people who suffered damages. Climate changes markedly shows its impact year by year. I can’t help being pessimistic if I think about what is going on after five years.

The Typhoon
The typhoon passed by our town last night. Fortunately, the center of it was a bit far from our city. Nevertheless, there was still a lot of rain in a short time here, and the large river nearby exceeded the dangerous flood water height and was even reported on the national news. Deep water accumulated on the streets in some places, and I saw people walking by who were immersed up to their knees in it. However, my house Is not only is located a little distance away from center of the city, but also sits at a higher elevation, so it was safe. Furthermore, this time, the wind was not as strong of a force as we had imagined. That is one big reason why there was not any serious damage here. But from the TV coverage, I knew that it had occurred in other places and I truly felt very sorry for all of the people who were affected. Climate changes have become markedly worse as shown by their impact and greater devastation year after year. I can’t help but to be pessimistic when I think about what is going to happen over the next five years.Hi Nozomi. Good job! Whatever changes I made were merely to allow your sentences to sound more natural to my native ears. Be sure to use pronouns (in this instance, "it") to avoid constant use of the same words (typhoon and damage). I hope this helps you. J.
