[quote:Anonymous Coward 17547458:MV8xODk5NzEzXzMxNzUwNTcwXzE4Q0NGRURE] Typhoon Guchol is forecast to strike Japan at about 18:00 GMT on 19 June.Data supplied by the US Navy and Air Force Joint Typhoon Warning Center suggest that the point of landfallwill benear34.0 N,137.1 E.Guchol is expected to bring 1-minute maximum sustained winds to the region of around120 km/h (74 mph).Wind gusts in the area may be considerably higher. According to the Saffir-Simpson damage scale the potential property damage and flooding from a storm of Guchol's strength (category 1) at landfall includes: Storm surge generally 1.2-1.5 metres (4-5 feet) above normal. No real damage to building structures. Damage primarily to unanchored mobile homes, shrubbery, and trees. Some damage to poorly constructed signs. Some coastal road flooding and minor pier damage. There is also the potential for flooding further inland due to heavy rain. [/quote]
Original Message
Latest models show Typhoon Guchol will make a direct hit on central Tokyo and then continue onward directly across Fukushima. It is anybody's guess whether this may be the event to cause a complete disaster at Fukushima, but there is panic building in Tokyo already.
