A few days after severe storms that killed several people, another typhoon killed one in Japan.

According to Japanese media, a man died in Kakegawa in Shizuoka Prefecture on the main island of Honshu after his house was hit by a landslide.

Typhoon Talas made landfall in east Honshus on Saturday morning, bringing heavy rain with it.

Japan is currently in typhoon season, which brings about 20 such heavy rain storms annually.

These often cause flooding and landslides.

According to the Japanese weather agency JMA, the storm reached gusts of up to 100 kilometers per hour.

The agency warned of high waves, heavy rains, landslides and flooding in central, eastern and northern Japan, including the capital Tokyo.

Another landslide in Hamamatsu, also in Shizuoka Prefecture, left three people, including a nine-year-old boy, with minor injuries, according to public broadcaster NHK.

Police could not immediately confirm the reports.

Typhoon Nanmadol killed four and injured 151 in southwestern Japan last weekend.

According to scientists, man-made climate change is leading to more severe storms and making extreme weather events such as heat waves, droughts and floods more frequent and more intense.
