In Takeo City, Saga Prefecture, where record heavy rains and severe damage occurred, we obtained a video that captured the situation of the river at the time when the increased river water overflowed onto the road.
In Takeo City, two people died, such as the death of a person who was swept away by a car near the river, one person was lost, and many houses were damaged by water.
The situation at that time was recorded on the security camera installed by NHK in the company in Kitakata-cho, Takeo City.
Around 3am on the 28th. You can see the rain hitting the ground.
At around 4:30 am, the rain became even more intense, and water overflowed from the river in front of the company.
And the word “stop” written on the street is almost invisible.
Before 8:00 am, the guard pipe with a height of about 1 meter installed on the side of the road was almost submerged, and the boundary between the road and the river was lost.
Shinichiro Mitsutake, president of the company that installed the security camera, said, “In addition to the company building being submerged 50 centimeters above the floor, the car parked in the parking lot was submerged. The employees were all safe. It ’s a big disaster and I ’m surprised. ”
