September 18, 2022: #Typhoon #Nanmadol brought torrential rain and the risk of destructive landslides to Japan's southernmost main island on Sunday, after more than four million people were ordered to seek shelter from the powerful storm, which was expected to traverse virtually the entire length of the country. The storm officially made landfall around 7 p.m. local time as its eyewall arrived near Kagoshima city, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) said. Typhoon Nanmadol has brought winds of at least 180 km/h (112mph) and some areas could see 500mm (20 inches) of rainfall over Sunday and Monday. Extensive flooding and landslides are expected, while bullet train services, ferries, and hundreds of flights have been cancelled. More details:
