Miyagi Osaki October 17th 12:31 at the house in the area where water began to be drained
In Kashimadai, Osaki City, Miyagi Prefecture, where the banks of the Yoshida River broke down and houses and farmland were flooded in a wide area, the country started draining work by using pumps and so on. In some areas, residents return to their homes and start cleaning up.
In Kashimadai, Osaki City, over 600 houses were flooded due to the flooding of the Yoshida River, and houses and farmland are still flooded in a wide area.
According to the city's disaster response headquarters, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has increased the number of drainage pump cars to 20 since last night.
For this reason, the water began to draw in some areas, so the residents headed home by rowing boats.
If the water is completely drained, some heavy tatami mats and furniture cannot be floated on the water, so some people rush to clean up.
Mr. Isao Furuzumi, who lives in the local area, said, “In the house, the tatami mats and furniture floated with water. The oil used for agricultural machinery leaked from a nearby tank and entered the house. "
This area is originally a reclaimed land, and drainage is bad, so in cities and other places, drainage stations are in operation and work is rushed, but there is no prospect of when drainage can be completed.
