Typhoon Kanun, currently very powerful No. 6, approached Okinawa, Japan this afternoon (1st).
Because of this, Naha International Airport was closed, and evacuation orders were issued in some areas.

Slowing down gradually, it is expected to remain stagnant for a long time in the East China Sea near Shanghai, China.
After the day after tomorrow, it is expected to gradually turn eastward and push more hot water vapor into our country.
