On the night of the 25th, the Japan Meteorological Agency issued a "linear rainband imminent forecast" for the Chikuhō and Chikugo regions of Fukuoka Prefecture. Although no linear rainbands formed, torrential rain exceeding 80 mm per hour was observed in Ukiha-machi, Ukiha City, leading to a temporary "Level 4 Landslide Hazard Warning" being issued for Fukuoka and Saga prefectures. As a result, "Level 4 Evacuation Orders" were issued for a wide area including Kurume City, Ukiha City, and Kitakyushu City. Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka City, Kurume City, and other areas decided to close elementary schools, junior high schools, and special needs schools. The following morning, the 26th... ■Reporter Tsubasa Hirayama: "It's around 8:00 AM in Tenjin, Fukuoka City. It's raining intermittently. Many people can be seen heading towards the stairs leading to the underground shopping area, presumably on their way to work." ■Person on the Street: "I had the windows closed when I went to sleep, but the rain was so heavy I could hear it. It was terrible. I checked early to see if the trains were running when I woke up." On the 26th, Fukuoka Prefecture held a disaster response headquarters meeting to confirm the extent of damage in various areas. ■Governor Hattori: "In the southern part of the prefecture, there has been flooding of houses, inundation of roads, and landslides." In addition to damage reported mainly in the Chikugo region, police say a man in his 70s died in Yame City, Fukuoka Prefecture. He is believed to have fallen after climbing onto the roof to repair a leak. In Omuta City... ■Reporter Higuchi: "Part of the road has collapsed, so this area is off-limits." Large rocks were also found among the collapsed earth and debris. In Fukuoka Prefecture, a total of seven landslides occurred, including at this site, due to the heavy rains. Also, in Yanagawa City, the rain that fell on the urban area exceeded the drainage capacity, causing flooding in nine homes, both above and below floor level. ■Reporter Nakamura Anri: "It's just after 11:00 AM in Ohama-cho, Yanagawa City. The rain has stopped, but the area is still flooded. The water is up to my knees." In this area, the water level began to rise on the 24th, and by the 25th, it was already flooded. ■Ms. Matsufuji Mitsuko: "It's terrible inside. Look at this condition. Everything is soaked, and the electricity won't work." Ms. Matsufuji Mitsuko lives in this area. Although her home was undamaged, she said she couldn't prevent the flooding of her warehouse. ■Mr. Matsufuji Q. What kind of things did you keep in the warehouse? "Potatoes, for example. Just harvested this year. I don't think we've had any for the past year or two. Everyone was caught off guard. We thought we wouldn't have that many this year either." Rainfall in Fukuoka Prefecture since the start of the downpour has exceeded 680 mm in some areas, which is one-third of the average annual rainfall. The meteorological observatory is urging people to remain vigilant and cautious of landslides even after the rain has stopped. For the latest news, please visit https://news.ntv.co.jp/n/fbs.
