This is the outlook for the future.

The typhoon is expected to change its course to the north on the 7th, and then approach Kyushu on Wednesday the 9th as it develops slightly.

Due to the influence of the typhoon body and the surrounding rain clouds
▽ In the next few hours in the Okinawa region,
▽ In the Amami region and southern Kyushu, on the night of the 7th
There is a risk that a “linear rain belt” will occur and the risk of disasters will increase rapidly.

▽ 300 mm in the Amami region and southern Kyushu,
▽ 200 mm in Okinawa and Shikoku,
▽ 150 mm in northern Kyushu and Tokai,
