Typhoon in Japan

Typhoon Nanmadol, better known in Japan as Typhoon No. 14 (serial number this year), caused great damage to the Land of the Rising Sun.

As a result of the elements, three people died and 133 were injured in the south and southwest of Japan, NHK reported.
On the island of Kyushu, the brunt of the elements fell, where one person in Hiroshima Prefecture is still missing. According to NHK, it is on the island of Koshu that the most affected. The typhoon has already passed over its territory. However, significant damage and injuries were reported from both Yamaguchi prefectures on Honshu and from prefectures on Shikoku.
In total, injuries of varying severity were received by people in 21 out of 47 prefectures. Over 90 houses were partially or completely destroyed due to the impact of the disaster.

In Miyazaki Prefecture, which began heavy rains on Thursday under the influence of the typhoon, during this time 985 millimeters of rain fell, which is about double the monthly average for September in the area.
Currently, the typhoon, which got its name in honor of the monument of Micronesian culture – the Nan Madol complex, has left the territory of Japan, leaving behind serious damage. He will be evaluated later. As expected, the typhoon, moving over the western coast of Japan, left the country to the east and by Tuesday morning, September 20, passed from west to east over the northern regions of the island of Honshu.

The typhoon has led to the cancellation of more than 800 flights taking off and landing in the prefectures of Kyushu and Shikoku in southwestern Japan. “Nanmadol” also affected the railway communication: all high-speed electric trains “Shinkansen” on the island of Kyushu were canceled. Later, as the typhoon moved north, the Shinkansen high-speed electric trains between Shin-Osaka and Nagoya stopped, and the number of trains between Nagoya and Tokyo decreased. Also, the movement of ordinary trains was stopped and significantly reduced in the prefectures of Osaka, Kyoto, Hyogo, Hiroshima, Yamaguchi, Shimane, Tottori. In addition, authorities have canceled ferries from Tokyo Bay and Chiba Prefecture, neighboring Tokyo.
