. >>> it's raining here in tokyo, but the situation is a lot more severe for those in indochina peninsula. let's turn to mai shoji for the updates. >> the strong typhoon that hit central vietnam has downgraded and is now heading toward northern thailand this afternoon as a tropical depression. the gusts have wound down. however, the tropical moisture will keep on surging and bringing flooding rain across indochina peninsula. on top of that, we have another storm system that is actually enhancing the southwestern monsoonal flow over the indochina peninsula, so the rain will be nonstop. as much as 150 millimeters to 200 millimeters in localized areas will be continuing across much of the coastal regions here in the eastern indochina peninsula as well as the west. thailand, vietnam has already seen about topping 200 millimeters in the past couple of days. on top of that, additional rain certainly ups risk of mudslides. this is the other storm that is east of the philippines as of now, but despite the proximity, it's surging all the moisture and dumping it as heavy rain. and across the philip

we have been seeing a lot of rain here across the western seaboards of indochina peninsula for a few weeks already. with this storm nearing, it doesn't look like it's going to be good news we'll keep a close eye on this, we have to keep a close eye on other storms as well. you can see three storms over the water. the water is very warm. the warm sea surface means it will be feeding the system. we have a system just below the eastern coast of japan, and it's affecting the iso islands reaching up to 70 kilometers per hour. it will be making storm surges and highways along the pacific coast of japan, looks like this will be continuing. with the rain, we're seeing showers across the region. this will be traveling across the pacific ocean with sometimes very hev have a rain and with that combined with the high waves, flooding at low lying coastal areas will be at very high risk. another storm system over east of the philippines, not affecting land masses now, it will be headed toward oaken awe wau, and this will be fed, energized with the warm water and it will become a typhoon status. by

the storm is moving away from vietnam but the stormy weather will be continuing across the indochina peninsula as the system weakness into a remnant but for now the tropical storm storm status is remaining at the speed of 30 kilometers per hour so it won't accumulate in enough ter over the path of the system. however, it is surging a lot of moisture, again, and enhancing the southwestern monsoon flow in the western seaboards so 100 millimeters or more could be found in localized areas on top of well saturated and loose ground which will then up the risk of floods, landslides and mud sliends over the indochina peninsula especially in the coastal regions. another storm system to talk about moving away from the islands here but will be making its way towards the implt zo islands. it will likely see gusts of up to 100 kilometers per hour and then moving to the eastern coast of japan as a remnant low by that time through the midweek but it will be bringing a lot of coastal waves as much as three meters high along the coast. and so the low-lying areas will possibly find some flooding to be at high r

storm is now moving away from vietnam, but the stormy weather will be continuing crass the indochina peninsulas the system weakens into a remnant low. for now, tropical storm status is still remaining, even over land masses. it's moving at the speed of 30 kilometers per hour, so it's not going to be accumulating enough water over the -- over the path of the system. however, it is surging a lot of moisture again and enhancing the southwestern monsoonal flow in the western seaboard as well as the eastern seaboards yet again. 100 millimeters or 150, even more could be found in local i'ded areas on top of the -- localized areas on top of the well saturated and loose ground which will then up the risk of flash floods, flooding, landslides, and mud slides again over the indochina peninsula, especially in the coastal regions. now we have another storm system to talk about. this is moving away from the islands now but will be making its way toward the izo islands. we'll likely see gusts up to 100 kilometers per hour. it will then move toward the eastern coast of japan. as a remnant low by that time th

here across the philippines and the indochina peninsula more rain to be hitting the western seaboards as well as the coast. thailand, no warnings in place. which is great news. a little break from that. surging from the moisture of the south china sea will be bringing in buckets full of rainfall to vietnam. we are looking at high pressure. humidity down to 30% in parts of china but likely to see a rainy saturday in japan. now across the americas, the last few days it was very calm. but now we have a tropical storm, severe weather and heavy snow as well as santa ana winds to talk about. but let me start by introducing you karen. it looks like it's not going to be a hurricane, but it will be bringing hurricane-force winds into louisiana and florida. not only the gusts, but the dumping of the rain will be quite significant as this system moves toward the east, due to the descending frontal line merging with this system and that's going to be bringing drenching amounts of rainfall in the next few days. not only that, but we have severe weather that is moving across the eastern half of the

bangladesh, another lower system that will be bringing heavy amounts of downpours across the indochina peninsula. bringing downpours. significant amounts of rainfall again will be upping the risks of flooding and lapped slides here. another area moving into japan here across the region in the evening houring, will be bringing some heavy rain, but that's not until the afternoon -- sleeng hours. but do carry umbrellas if y0u7 ear going to be out and about. high pressure will be predominant in other areas of the eastern continental asia. now towards europe, we have a dry zone across much of the scandinavia and central regions with this big high pressure system sitting on fop of it. but that's making this system to be blocking some persistent showers. so we'll be here in the british isles. and then that will be moving into the low countries. we're looking at some cool temperatures underneath that high pressure system. especially bucharest, with clear skies and also the less winds. your lows will be down to about minus 1 due to the radiation cooling caused. here in kiev, you may see mixed precipitati

we see a lot of rainfall across the philippines as well as the indochina peninsula and where more than a million people have been affected in the past few weeks. now, we had that former root of that pass over these countries and it's now gone but it has been affecting these areas, saturating the land and the ground is very well loose. we don't have any warnings in if northern thailand but for now, which is good news, but it's going to be a very short break with moisture surging from the sea, again, vietnam will see very heavy rain. we're tracking another storm system over the pacific water. this will be affecting the mariana islands as the tropical storm status into the next 24 hours. showers will be lingering across the region morning and evening hours. let's see some showers but generally speaking, eastern china is dominated with the high pressure system and we're like lake to see very clear skies and in japan, western japan, will likely see a lot of clear skies, too. yesterday, a beautiful sunset appeared. a picture from my friend. a very nice area. this is going to happen again ton

lingering as a low pressure system for days, bringing lots of rain for the west coes of the indochina peninsulan, it's now strengthened to a cyclonic storm and will likely move north and northwest, probably hit odisha by the weekend as a very severe cyclonic storm. so we have to monitor this system as well. temperatures are going to be in the 30s in hong kong as well as taipei. but towards the north, very chilly in ulan bator. 6 degrees for the high. in beijing, 21 degrees. cloudy but windy conditions that could ease hazy conditions there. across the americas, we have a slow-moving low pressure system across the east coast. the center is now located over the mid-atlantic coast. and as you can see, it's not going to move. that means heavy rain will continue. so flood risk will remain very high for the next few days. also strong winds will raise the potential for beach erosion across coastal areas. behind it we have a winter storm over the southwest. it's now producing some snow showers for the sierras. and that could reach colorado and utah on wednesday and then move over towards the north as we

about the showers, we still have a low-pressure system lingering over the central region of indochina peninsulathis is the typhoon that made landfall in central vietnam this week. it's still there. the additional amounts of rainfall could certainly up the risk of flooding across these areas. now to the americas. a very well-developed low-pressure system is on its way to southeastern canada. it is sagging. this cold front, all the way into mexico. flooding rain will be continuously pounding southern texas. the rivers across these areas are already exceeding major flooding levels. any additional amounts could tricker further flooding. this cold front sagging from canada and to the upper midwest is carrying a wave of cold air and bringing white snowflakes across much of the mountainous regions, especially in wyoming and in colorado. snow could pile up as much as 20 centimeters. winnipeg at nine degrees for the high. denver at 12 degrees. looking quite wintry up here. chicago, your lows are down to freezing. you may need to use heaters which is bad news during this oil price rise. toward the south,

but let's talk about this area over the indochina peninsula. rainfall extending to myanmar, and that will head off to the west. and very well impacting the east coast of india here, going into thursday and friday. as far as temperatures, very warm across the tropics. i do want to point this out, though. take a look at the snow up here. cloudy skies in tokyo. 29. danas will be pushing off towards the west. temperatures really reflecting that subtly warm air flowing in out ahead of it. as far as the americas goes, we have been watching this one storm system rolling across the eastern seaboard. now jetting off to the northeast. still lingering showers right near coastal areas. for the most part, high pressure is ridging in behind it. it is just making for some absolutely beautiful weather. the one foul weather spot is still going to be out towards the pacific northwest. a few lingering showers, even snow in the higher elevations. take a look at these temperatures. sunny skies dominating the forecast throughout much of central canada, even extendin

we have a low which is actually producing persistent heavy rain for the western parts of the indochina peninsula. it would become a more stronger system,s stronger system as we go into the next couple of days. now, across the americas, winter storm conditions could occur across the southwest. we have a low-pressure system ushering in colder air from the north. we may see some heavy snow in the sierras. up to 12 centimeters from wednesday morning. and heavier snow over the four corners region. probably 45 centimeters of snow plus gusts of over 110 kilometers per hour from wednesday night into friday. that could cause very dangerous driving conditions. very dry weather across the center of the u.s., but the remnants of a tropical storm are moving across the eastern seaboard at a slow pace while dumping heavy rain, creating thunderstorms. washington, d.c., may see some rain showers starting wednesday night. and new york city from thursday morning. temperatures are going to be quite mild in the north. 22 in chicago. in the higher teens in washington, d.c. as well as new york city on your wednesday.

i want to talk about the tropics into the indochina peninsula and vietnam. we have seen heavy showers out here. about 160 millimeters in vietnam here in the past 24 hours. you've been looking at flooding out there after typhoon nari came onshore back on monday. still some pretty serious conditions. over toward the americas, one system is moving off to the northeast, another one coming in from the west. this one is actually bringing snowfall in toward the rockies, and the northern plains and western portions of the great lakes. that's going to push through, work its way toward the east. behind it, cold air is ushering in from the north. we'll see temperatures drop down with snow flurries in a few areas. frost advisories as well. and also, it does look like the highs will be dropping going into friday and saturday. chicago, 14. in the single digits, denver just a high of 11. look at miami, partly cloudy skies, 31 on your thursday. over towards europe, we have one storm system down to the balkans. that will bring in rough weather in romania. still could see gus
