Tomorrow (Sat) it looks like the forecast here Toledo, OH, USA is about 90F (32C). We have a chance at thunderstorms, and with thunderstorms in this area comes the possibility comes the possibility of "seeing rotation." (I'm a storm spotter. To avoid panic, we avoid using the "T" word.) Do tornadoes occour in Japan?

Today we get the opportunity to use two of this week's grammar points. 明日は上海で雨が降るはず Ashita ha Shanghai de ame ga furu hazu. It should rain in Shanghai tomorrow. How about where you are? Just change 'Shanghai' to where you are, and 'furu' to what you think the weather will be like. Thanks for this lesson! Today we get the opportunity to use two of this week’s grammar points.

Kiyttychan, I think TTE comes from the verb iu: "to itte" It can be a topic marker (like "ha"): Kyo ha sukoshi samukunai : today .... Kyo tte sukoshi samukunai: speaking of today ... It can also mean that someone said something: Ame ga furutte : someone said it will rain. Yes the topic’s vocabulary is very interesting!

Being that this is a lower intermediate lesson and a lot of grammar has already been covered in prior lessons I like the direction of more intensive vocab. I would actually like to see much more vocabulary intensive lessons in the future. I really liked this lesson.
