ai generated text
Typhoon Shanshan is expected to approach southern Kyushu, Japan with extremely strong force, prompting the government to put the country on high alert. The storm is forecast to bring heavy rain and strong winds, with gusts of up to 252 kilometers per hour. Toyota has suspended production at all 14 of its factories in response to the storm. Two people remain unaccounted for after a landslide in Aichi prefecture. The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) is considering issuing a special warning for Kagoshima prefecture.
Maximum caution is required given that forecasts are for strong winds, high waves and high tides that have not been seen thus far.
Typhoon Shanshan is expected to approach southern Kyushu with extremely strong force through Thursday and it may make landfall.
It is expected that violent winds, high waves, and storm surge at levels that many people have never experienced before may occur.
