According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, moist air flows toward the front and low pressure, and the atmospheric conditions are unstable over a wide area in eastern Japan and Tohoku.
Kesa is covered with rain clouds developed in the southern Kanto region. In Chiba prefecture, radar analysis is about 110 millimeters near Yokoshiba Hikarimachi, about 100 millimeters near Sanmu city, and about 100 millimeters near Sakai city. It seems that there was a heavy rain of about 100 millimeters in one hour until 8:10 am, and the Japan Meteorological Agency announced "Recorded short-time heavy rain information".
Due to the rain so far, the risk of landslide disasters has increased in Chiba Prefecture, and there are areas where landslide disaster alert information has been announced.
Due to the continued unstable atmosphere, heavy rains are expected to fall locally in Tohoku around noon and in Niigata in the evening.
The amount of rain in the 24-hour period tomorrow morning is expected to be 80 mm on the Pacific side of Tohoku and 70 mm in Niigata Prefecture.
In areas affected by Typhoon No. 19, emergency repair work has been carried out due to the river bank breakage, etc., but there are places that have not been restored, and there are places where the ground is loose.
The Japan Meteorological Agency has called for caution because there is a risk that the risk of floods and sediment disasters will increase even if the rainfall does not normally lead to disasters.
Pay attention to how it rains during restoration work and cleaning up, keep away from the flooded rivers and mountain slopes, and pay attention to evacuation information from local governments.
