basically up along the whole length of japan. so very little parts of japan will escape the effects of this typhoon. as it moves a will be dropping less rain, the winds will mitigate some water. it'll also be picking up speed. it will be moving quicker, so it has less time to do damage overland. but part of the problem with this type of food, it has been so slow moving that full, basically much of the weekend. it has been dumping huge amounts of rain on the island, a key issue, one prefecture reporting, 900 millimeters of rain since saturday. now all of this is likely to cause damage land slides. this is a mountainous area. we do know that have been reports already of some casualties that have been a flight effect. it varies, affected, obviously. and also a tens of thousands of people have been left without because key issue has been quite exposed increasingly to more intense storms and grains coming out of the
