TOKYO - A super typhoon in the Pacific Ocean that could cause grave damage in Tokyo is expected to hit Japan on Saturday . Already, it has forced the cancellation of two Rugby World Cup games.
The storm is expected to weaken, with winds at about 145kmh, as it approaches Japan. Mr Bukunt predicted heavy rain there starting late on Friday or early on Saturday. The storm, he said, is expected to undergo"an extra-tropical transition" in the following days and become a large storm in the Bering Sea.NHK, Japan's public broadcaster, reported that officials are urging residents to prepare for potentially severe weather, including dangerous storm surges.
Mr Jeff Masters, a meteorologist with the magazine Scientific American, said that if Hagibis proceeds as predicted, it could become one of the most damaging typhoons in Japanese history.
