Future outlook

The front line is expected to stagnate around 10 days, and heavy rain is accompanied by lightning over a wide area of ​​western and eastern Japan on the 9th, and locally, extremely heavy rain of 50 mm or more per hour. There is a risk.

Even in Kyushu, where the heavy rains caused a great deal of damage, it is expected that the rain will intensify again.

In areas where heavy rains have occurred, the ground has become loose and there are places where river dikes have been damaged, and the risk of disasters continues to be extremely high.The Meteorological Agency is strict about landslides, river floods, and inundation of low land. In addition to being vigilant, we are calling for sufficient caution against heavy gusts such as lightning strikes and tornadoes.

In this heavy rain, there are many cases where the situation suddenly worsens in a short time.

It is important to move to a safe place while it is bright, but if it is dangerous, such as when you can not see your feet due to flooding, or the water flows vigorously from the slope, the height of a sturdy building nearby is high. On the floor, move to a room on the opposite side of the cliff or slope to secure yourself.

“I don't remember” long-term stagnation

The rainy season front, which is bringing record heavy rain to various places.

It will be stagnant along the archipelago after 3rd of this month, and it is expected that the position will not change significantly in the future.

A person in charge of the Japan Meteorological Agency also said, "I don't remember how long it is." The cause of the stagnation is the location and power of the Pacific High.

According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, there are many cases where the front line becomes stagnant and heavy rains at this time of the end of the rainy season every year, but the Pacific highs gradually increase in power and overhang near Japan, so the rainy front moves north and the rainy season begins. Drill.

However, since the pressure of the high pressure does not increase and the position hardly changes, the front has continued to stagnate near the archipelago without going north, and this state is expected to continue for at least 10 days.

Caution is also required for gusts such as tornadoes

Under cumulonimbus clouds that develop on the south side of the Baiu front, the risk of gusts such as tornadoes increases in addition to heavy rain.

In the morning of the 8th, the developed cumulonimbus passed near Toyohashi City in Aichi Prefecture, causing damage such as the roof of a house being blown off by a severe wind gust. It was.

Heavy rain and heavy gusts caused by the rainy season front, which is expected to stagnate in the archipelago.

We need to be vigilant in the future.
