OF course it does! It's on the ocean and it gets up to 50 hurricanes a year!
Yes they have quite a few. Perhaps their most famouse one was that which drove the Russian Navy off Japan's shores during the Russo-Sini (Russian-Japanese War) of the 1800s. It was believed that Japan's Gods had sent this hurricane to save the Japanese. This hurricane was known ever after as Kamikaze (the Devine Wind)
