A large and strong typhoon No. 2 is heading north, and the Amami region may enter a strong wind area with wind speeds of 15 meters or more on the night of the 31st. Watch out for storms and high waves.

The large and strong Typhoon No. 2 is slowly moving northward south of Okinawa. There is a risk of entering a storm zone with wind speeds of 25 meters or more in the morning of the 2nd.

As the typhoon moved northward, the coast of the Amami region was barging, and high waves accompanied by swells were crashing one after another on the coast of Tatsugo Town on Amami Oshima. And at the port of Naze, Amami City, work was being done to raise the ship to the quay and secure it with a rope in preparation for the typhoon.

The sea flights on the 31st were canceled mainly on the Amami route.

The impact of the typhoon is also here. Oshima High School in Amami City. Currently, about 90 students are going to the mainland to participate in the inter-high school tournaments and competitions.

Of these, 10 students from the karate club were scheduled to return to the island by ferry, but the ferry was canceled, so they had to return by plane in a hurry. Other students may not be able to go home as planned.

Switching to airplanes and staying longer in the mainland will increase the financial burden, so it seems that the typhoon will be troublesome for students and parents.
