Intermittent rain even after the special warning was switched to a warning
In Hiroshima City, a heavy rain special warning was announced on Friday, the 13th yesterday, but it has been switched to a warning. Even after the warning was switched to rain, the rain is getting stronger intermittently.
Even after the rain stops, the water level will continue to be high for several hours to several days, so please do not go see it even if you are worried about it. In addition, tributary rivers may not be able to drain water and flooding may occur, so vigilance is required even in places far from the main stream.
In Hiroshima Prefecture, we need to be vigilant for heavy rain throughout the day. A lull is expected tomorrow, but then intermittent rain is expected through the first half of next week.
Rain peaks towards dawn
From Weather News App

Heavy rain due to linear rain belt continues
In Oita Prefecture, a linear rainfall zone has been analyzed, and it rains torrentially at 110mm per hour in many places. Intermittent heavy rain is possible this morning.
Even if the rain subsides, the water level will continue to be high for several hours or more, so please do not go to see it even if you are concerned about the situation. In addition, tributary rivers may not be able to drain water and flooding may occur, so vigilance is required even in places far from large rivers.
If you live in an area where flooding is expected, please evacuate to a safe place without waiting for level 5 according to evacuation orders from local governments. If you are unsure of the safety of your route to an evacuation shelter, secure yourself on the upper floors of your home away from the slope.
