The weather in Japan in July

The rainstorm in Japan has been going on for a month since July. The flood caused by this rainstorm has killed 82 people and left 4 others missing. At present, their whereabouts are unknown.

More than a month has passed since heavy rainfall occurred in many places in Japan in July. According to the latest statistics of Japanese fire department, we can know that 82 people were killed and 4 people were missing in this accident. Among the 82 deaths, 65 people died in Kumamoto, 5 people died in Oita, 3 people died in Changdao, 2 people died in Fukuoka, 1 person died in Luoerdao, and 2 people were missing in Kumamoto and Oita.

I believe everyone has seen the news that there was no continuous rainfall in northeastern Japan and then the river burst its banks and flooded. Due to the influence of Meiyu front in Japan, there are large-scale and long-term rainy weather in nine States of Japan, and the rainfall in many areas exceeds the previous standards. The Meteorological Bureau has also issued special rainstorm warnings to severely affected counties for many times, hoping to make timely adjustments for the people, but there is no way to stop the floods, which still leads to a series of property losses.

In this natural weather disaster, 17898 buildings in Japan were damaged to varying degrees. Some houses may be washed away directly, and some houses may have their walls washed away, but many houses have been washed away by floods, so it is impossible to help others in a short time, or they can continue to live after all the walls are painted and disinfected. Among them, Dafeng County and Kagoshima County in Kumamoto Prefecture are seriously affected areas, and many buildings are directly damaged, and most of them should be soaked in water, resulting in water accumulation.

Affected by floods, more than 1400 people in Kumamoto are homeless and still living in shelters. Coincidentally, in this month, the COVID-19 epidemic in Kumamoto Prefecture became more and more worrying, with a five-fold increase. Now the flood needs to send manpower and material resources to help, and more and more confirmed cases make Kumamoto more worried. There is no way to help when the flood comes. When people are dredged in an emergency, how to ensure their safety, prevent them from being washed away in the flood and avoid the spread of the virus has become another big problem for medical institutions and rescuers.
