Moist air flowing in, rain clouds developing around Kanto
Even though it will become a tropical depression, it will send moist air toward a front off the coast of Honshu, leading to the development of rain clouds. On Friday, the 27th, rain is expected to intensify along the coast from Kanto to Shizuoka and the Izu Islands. When active rain clouds pass, there is a risk of extremely heavy rainfall exceeding 30mm per hour.
Currently, the timing and range of intensified rainfall predictions carry a high degree of uncertainty, and there is a possibility of heavy rain also in the Kanto Plain, including central Tokyo. Please check the latest information.
