While concerns remain about the impact of the new Typhoon No. 26, the damage from Typhoon No. 25 is still ongoing. In Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, a body was discovered at the site of a landslide. It is believed to be a missing woman in her 20s.

■Typhoon x Autumn Rain Front: Record-Breaking Heavy Rain in Kyushu

The rain was so heavy that the landscape was obscured by a white haze. In Shikoku, the rain intensified locally in the afternoon.

This is a roadside station in Kihoku Town, Ehime Prefecture. Large raindrops lashed violently against a giant 5-meter-tall demon monument.

(Photographer) "It was raining so hard that visibility was poor. It rained for about an hour."

The rain also reached Kyushu…

(Reporter Takamitsu Makiyama) "It's 8:30 AM in Nagasaki City. The rain and wind have both intensified since earlier."

A "linear rainband imminent forecast" was issued for northern Kyushu this morning. Due to the influence of the autumn rain front and humid air, extremely heavy rain fell from the morning.

Rainwater overflowing from the drainage system flows like a waterfall into the river. People crossing the bridge hurry along, sheltering from the driving rain with umbrellas.

In Omuta City, Fukuoka Prefecture, 281 mm of rain fell in a single day, the highest amount ever recorded for September. This is roughly the amount of rain that falls in a month and a half during this period. A Level 4 heavy rain warning was issued for Kumamoto and Fukuoka prefectures.

Typhoon No. 26 is expected to move northeast at the speed of a bicycle and may approach the Kanto region from the middle to the latter half of the week. Because it will stimulate the autumn rain front, heavy rain is possible even far from the typhoon, so caution is advised.

■Landslides in Kanto: Risk of Widespread Damage

The scars of Typhoon No. 25 remain clearly visible in the Kanto region. There is a risk of further damage. Landslides have affected a wide area, and some places remain untouched.

This is Nagara Town, Chiba Prefecture, located almost in the center of the Boso Peninsula. As we walked along a road impassable by car due to remaining mud and fallen trees, we came across two cars covered in mud, seemingly swept away.
Further on—
(Director Yuki Ikeda) "The road is completely covered in mud. It's been several days now, but it's completely impassable."
We turned back and tried another road.
"This road is also cut off by a landslide. Landslides are occurring everywhere in Nagara Town."
As of today, road closures continue in various places, and according to Nagara Town, "removal work can't keep up, and there's no prospect of recovery."
As we continued our reporting, we saw a person in a car immobilized by mud.
Q. Is that your husband's car?
"This car belongs to my friend. I think if I had been 0.1 seconds later, I would have died."
She said she was friends with the car's owner and was asked to have it towed—

(Friend who was asked to call a tow truck) "Even if we dug it ourselves, we couldn't move the car, right?"
Q. Was the driver able to escape?
"He apparently escaped by getting out of the window. He said he hit this (guardrail) with great force and was saved."
When we connected a call to the friend who was actually driving the car, we learned that there was another car following behind.
(Man caught in the landslide) "I looked in the rearview mirror and saw lights behind me, so I thought there might be a car. That's when the 'avalanche' (landslide) happened. It was like a bang, bang, like thunder. The mud hit the car."
The car following behind may have been caught in the landslide, and search operations for the 70-year-old man believed to be the driver were continuing at the site of the collapse.

■At the Landslide Site…Missing Woman in Her 20s?

(Director Masashi Yamamoto) "It's 6:30 AM. We're at the landslide site in Miura City. Many police and firefighters are now entering the site."
In Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, intensive search efforts continue today.
Watching the scene is a man—the husband of the missing woman in her 20s.

(Husband of Missing Woman) "I really don't care what condition she's in, I just hope she's brought back to the surface soon."
They've been married for almost two years. They had planned a trip together for their wedding anniversary next month.

"We were talking about going to Kusatsu, and we'd even booked a ryokan (Japanese inn). In fact, my wife had planned everything meticulously, saying things like, 'I want to go here,' and 'I want to go there.' If she doesn't come back soon, we won't be able to go on our trip. It's hard to put into words… but I still can't help but wonder if she's lying."
The landslide hit a two-story apartment building. He says he lost contact with his wife, who was in their home on the first floor.

(Husband of the missing woman) "I think this is the room on the first floor, and her location data stops here. It stopped five days ago. I called my wife via video call around 1:30 (on ...
