Today, the 13th, the humid air around Typhoon No. 7 is flowing in, and rain clouds and thunderclouds are developing in places, mainly in the coastal areas of the Kanto region. In the afternoon, rain and thunderstorms are expected not only in coastal areas but also inland areas, with localized heavy rainfall. Be careful of flooding on low roads such as underpasses.
Kanto Rain and thunderstorms in places in the afternoon, some places with heavy rain
Today, the 13th, strong Typhoon No. 7 is slowly moving north over the sea south of Hachijojima.
Even before the typhoon approached, moist air around the typhoon was flowing in, and rain clouds and thunderclouds were developing here and there around the coastal areas in the Kanto region even at noon.
In the afternoon, there will be rain and thunderstorms not only in coastal areas, but also inland areas, with localized torrential downpours like an overturned bucket. Be careful of flooding on low roads such as underpasses.
Intermittent torrential rain Fear of increased rainfall
Typhoon No. 7 will move north over the sea south of Honshu from now on, and on the 15th (Tuesday) it is likely to approach and land in Kinki and Tokai. The possibility of a typhoon hitting the Kanto region directly is low, but there is a risk that the humid air around the typhoon will flow in and cause heavy rainfall.
Tomorrow on the 14th, there will be rain clouds and thunderclouds in places in the Kanto region, and there will be places with heavy rain accompanied by thunder in the afternoon. Winds are expected to pick up, especially along the coast.
On the 15th (Tuesday), rain clouds will cover a wide area, and there will be places with intermittent heavy rain accompanied by thunder. Heavy rainfall is possible. Watch out for landslides, flooding of low-lying land, rising rivers and flooding. There is also a risk of warning-level heavy rain, mainly in Kanagawa Prefecture.
Strong winds will blow mainly in the coastal areas, and the sea will become turbulent with swells. Please stay away from the coast.
What is heavy rain
Heavy rain refers to rainfall of 30 mm or more and less than 50 mm per hour. This is an image of falling like an upside down bucket. In addition, even with an umbrella, about half of the people sleeping inside a wooden house notice the rain. Outside, the road becomes like a river, and cars running on the highway may experience “hydroplaning,” a phenomenon in which a film of water forms between the tires and the road surface, making the brakes inoperable.
In places where heavy rain is expected, it is possible to cause landslide disasters, flooding of low-lying land, and swelling and flooding of rivers, so caution is required.
