Record heavy rain and storms can cause serious damage. Please evacuate early.
A summary of evacuation points.
Don't wait for a special alarm!
Please do not wait for the “special warning” issued by the Japan Meteorological Agency.
When a special warning is issued, it is highly likely that a serious disaster has already occurred due to increased rain and wind.
You cannot evacuate after a special warning is issued, and if you evacuate forcibly, it may be dangerous.
Please evacuate without waiting for the announcement of the special warning.
Elderly / Children are Level 3 “Evacuation Preparation”
Evacuation takes time for elderly people and families with children.
Please start evacuation when the local government announces level 3 information on “preparation for evacuation / start evacuation for the elderly”.
Without missing "evacuation advisory"
If an “evacuation advisory” corresponding to level 4 is announced by the local government, please check the surrounding situation carefully and start evacuation promptly.
"Evacuation site" is flexible
If the situation has already begun to worsen, or if you feel that it is dangerous to move to a evacuation site established by the local government because the evacuation site is far away or you need to pass near a river or cliff, You can also ensure safety by moving to a relative's or friend's house on a tall building or high ground.
"Vertical evacuation"
It is dangerous to go outside if the rain and wind suddenly increase and flooding or landslides have already occurred in the surrounding area.
Even in the past disasters, there are a number of cases involving disasters while moving to an evacuation site.
If a disaster has already occurred, you may be able to secure safety by performing a “vertical evacuation” that moves to a room on the second floor or higher of the building and on the other side of the cliff.
Please check your surroundings and take action.
