Hey, so are you ;) We opened presents early this morning but I need to allocate my days off because I'm going to a New Year Day party. I guess I'll watch the Castle in the Sky DVD I got for Christmas tonight.

Note from asker:
| I had "tropical storm edge" at first, but I did not find reliable references to back this up. :( |
| However, I do think you are right. PS: Thought you said you got a few days of break, so why are you still online? It's Xmas day!! |

edge/fringe of tropical storm
It seems like both "edge of tropical storm" (http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-62375) and "fringe of tropical storm" (http://www.flickr.com/photos/nigel_kelso/3308881412/) are in use, while "periphery" should mean "周邊", to be precise (http://www.ilib2.com/A-ISSN~1007-6190(2001)03-0032-03.html).
