Three typhoons active as Typhoon 27 brings high waves to Kanto

Three typhoons are simultaneously active as of Tuesday morning, with Typhoon 27 prompting high wave warnings for the Kanto region. This marks the first time in five years that three typhoons have coexisted in October. Large and strong Typhoon 27 is moving north near the Ogasawara Islands, with waves up to 7 meters expected there and 6 meters in the Kanto and Izu Islands through Wednesday. Typhoon 28, a "cross-border" typhoon originating from Hurricane Noru, is forecast to turn west and head east of Japan by Saturday. Typhoon 29, which formed Monday near the Marshall Islands, is expected to intensify and approach the Minami-Torishima area by Friday. The Ogasawara Islands may see impacts from the three-day weekend starting Saturday, and authorities urge people to avoid coastal areas despite the typhoons staying offshore.
