Typhoon Shanshan has wreaked havoc across Japan, resulting in at least six fatalities and over 120 injuries as it made landfall in Kyushu, packing winds of up to 252 km/h before weakening to a tropical storm. The storm has caused widespread disruptions with thousands of flights and train services, including Shinkansen bullet trains, canceled due to severe weather conditions. The Japan Meteorological Agency issued warnings for landslides, flooding, and overflowing rivers, particularly affecting areas like Gifu and Mie prefectures. Heavy rainfall is expected to continue, with up to 300mm forecasted in certain regions. Residents have expressed surprise at the typhoon's extensive impact, which has led to significant property damage and power outages affecting over 32,000 homes. Authorities are urging caution as the storm continues to move northeast across the country.
