Naoji Nakamura, a forecaster for the large typhoon No. 17, held a press conference at 2:00 pm. Frontal activities are expected to become more active along the north of Japan, and there is a risk of heavy rains in western Japan, especially in Kyushu. In rural areas, alertness is necessary for storms, high waves and heavy rains. "
We also called for attention in the affected areas of Chiba Prefecture and Izu Islands, which are far from the course of the typhoon, as they may be affected for three consecutive holidays from the 21st.
According to Nakamura, “Even in areas where power outages and housing damage have been prolonged, there is a risk that rain and wind will intensify. Although it is low, I would like you to pay close attention to the weather conditions during the recovery activities. "
