Japan's Meteorological Agency on June 26, 2026 issued a warning for a typhoon expected to make landfall this weekend. The storm is forecast to bring heavy rain and strong winds, affecting multiple regions nationwide.
The agency urged residents in coastal and high-risk areas to closely monitor weather developments and prepare measures against flooding, landslides, and powerful gusts. The exact path of the typhoon will be updated in the coming hours.
Earlier forecasts by some experts had indicated the storm might weaken or change direction as it approached the Japanese archipelago, but the latest warning suggests a high risk of direct landfall. Residents are advised to avoid going outdoors during high-wind alerts and to stock up on essential supplies.
