Japanese authorities urged at least 350,000 people to evacuate as Typhoon Nangka struck southern Japan.

The typhoon made landfall on Shikoku Island last night (July 16), bringing torrential rain and winds of 186 km/h.

Typhoon Nangka brought large waves that crashed onto the Japanese coast.

Kyodo News reported that at least two people were killed, while NHK said more than 30 were injured.

Typhoon Nangka has weakened, but authorities warn that heavy rain and strong winds will continue in the area.

Although the storm has weakened, Japanese authorities warn it remains very dangerous.

As of this morning (July 17), the Japan Meteorological Agency warned of high waves, strong winds, and thunderstorms in many areas of the main island of Honshu as the typhoon moved northward.

Currently, Nangka is moving slowly at a speed of 15 km/h.
