Typhoon No. 27 brings rough seas and high waves to Kanto, Ogasawara and Izu Islands

Typhoon No. 27, a large and strong storm, is moving northward, prompting warnings for rough seas and high waves in the Ogasawara and Izu Islands and off the Kanto region through early Wednesday. The Japan Meteorological Agency says Typhoon No. 27 is near the Ogasawara Islands, moving north at 20 kph with a central pressure of 950 hPa and maximum winds of 40 meters per second. Waves of up to 7 meters are expected in the Ogasawara Islands, with 6-meter waves elsewhere, requiring caution. Typhoon No. 28 (Noro), a very strong storm, is moving west near the Midway Islands, while Typhoon No. 29's projected path is also being tracked. The agency urges continued vigilance for high waves and storm conditions.
