Typhoon No. 6 Active rain clouds to western Japan even after the center has left
There are multiple cloud bands away from the center of Typhoon No. 6, and heavy rain is falling at the timing when these active rain clouds pass. This situation will continue for some time after Typhoon No. 6 makes landfall on the Korean Peninsula.
Since Typhoon No. 6 will not weaken until it makes landfall on the Korean Peninsula, strong winds will continue in northern Kyushu and some parts of the Chugoku region in the morning. Be careful of strong winds not only in Tsushima, Nagasaki Prefecture, which is near the center of Typhoon No.
In addition, due to the rain that had been falling before Typhoon No. 6 approached, there were places along the mountains of Kyushu and Shikoku where there were heavy rains of 700 mm or more in three days. Even though it is an area with a lot of rain, the ground is loose, so please continue to be vigilant against landslides and flooding of rivers.

Typhoon No. 7 Pay attention to the future course
Typhoon No. 7 is moving west while developing, and is expected to approach the Ogasawara Islands from today. It is expected to move north east of Chichijima with strong force until the day after tomorrow.
Typhoon No. 7 will move north next week, and according to the latest information, the center of the forecast circle is expected to be in the Tokai region on the 15th (Tuesday) of Obon. It can be said that there is a possibility that it will approach Honshu and make landfall.
It is conceivable that transportation will be affected and power outages will occur during the Obon holidays. If you are planning to travel, return home, or participate in an event, please pay attention to future information.
Reference Results of simulations of paths calculated by meteorological agencies around the world
Each thin line in this figure represents the simulation result of the course calculated by meteorological agencies around the world. The results (members) obtained in the process of the ensemble forecast method are posted to give an image of the wide range of possible paths.
Comparing these members, although there is a tendency to move westward and then northward, there is a wide range from those that pass east of Honshu to those that move toward western Japan. It can be read that gender cannot be excluded.
Depending on the course, the impact on each place will change greatly. It is expected that the accuracy of the forecast will gradually increase, so please pay attention to future information.
Three typhoons this month
This year, typhoons No. 4 occurred in mid-July, and Typhoons No. 5 and No. 6 occurred in late July.
The average number of typhoons in July is 3.7, which is a time when the number of typhoons increases rapidly in a normal year. This year, the number of typhoons is slightly lower than usual, but please prepare for typhoons and heavy rains in preparation for the coming season.
typhoon name
Typhoon names are prepared in advance by member countries of the international organization “Typhoon Committee”, etc., and are given in order of occurrence.
Typhoon No. 6’s name “Khanun” was proposed by Thailand and is taken from the names of Thai fruits (jackfruit, jackfruit).
Typhoon No. 7’s name, “Lan,” was proposed by the United States, and is taken from the Marshallian language (the language of the Marshall Islands in the Northwest Pacific), meaning “storm.”
