Typhoon Chan Hom impacts Japan and moves west
Typhoon "Chan Hom," which struck eastern Japan, specifically Ibaraki Prefecture near Tokyo, has been officially reported. It is the first typhoon to hit the region since records began in 1951. The storm caused an increase in wind speeds and heavy rainfall, prompting warnings of high waves and intense downpours, with some areas expected to receive up to 180 millimeters of rain within 24 hours. The typhoon is anticipated to cross Japan's main island, Honshu, heading westward before transforming into a tropical storm and reaching the sea off the west coast of Japan by Wednesday afternoon.
