Typhoon No. 10 approaching the hotel from people considering evacuation Kagoshima September 6, 10:27
In Shibushi City, Kagoshima Prefecture, where Typhoon No. 10 is approaching, both rain and wind are increasing, and at hotels in the city, we were stuck with the work of sticking cardboard so that the window glass at the entrance would not break.
In addition, people who were considering evacuation made a series of phone calls to inquire about the availability, and the staff were busy responding.
A man in his 70s living in the city who evacuated to this hotel with 8 people including his family and neighbors said, "I am worried about the infection with the new coronavirus and I have small grandchildren, so I do not want to bother So I evacuated to the hotel for the first time. I want to manage to survive the typhoon safely."
There are 73 rooms in this hotel, but it is said that there were already evacuees and others already occupied by 2 days this month, 4 days ago.
"The Hotel Polaris manager, Shinnobu Haruta, said, "I'm surprised that there are reservation inquiries not only from within the prefecture but also from Miyazaki prefecture. I have about 10 times as many telephone calls as when I was expecting a typhoon or heavy rain. I want to do my best to ensure that people who have lived there are safe."
