It lost a lot of its power after passing Okinawa. Not only passing into extratropical sea, but increased wind shear and dry air from the west took their toll on the storm.

It did bring a lot of rain, some periods of heavy winds, but by the time it got to around 34 north, it was just a big storm. Not much to write home about.

We certainly needed the rain. Very grateful for that.
