About two million people in southwestern Japan have been ordered to evacuate ahead of Typhoon Nanmadol forecast to hit the region on Sunday

The typhoon is forecast to hit southern Kyushu, one of Japan’s southwest islands, specifically within Kagoshima Prefecture, according to NHK. “Weather officials have issued an emergency warning for violent winds, high waves and a storm surge for Kagoshima Prefecture,” NHK reported. Residents in 965,000 households have been ordered to evacuate across the seaside cities of Miyazaki, Kagoshima, and Amakusa.

“There is a possibility that it will be record heavy rain and an emergency heavy rain warning will be announced,” said Japan’s Meteorological Agency . “The highest level of vigilance is required for rising water levels and flooding of rivers, landslide disasters, and flooding of lowlands.” Ryuta Kurora, a JMA official, warned Saturday strong winds could cause houses to collapse. Kurora urged residents to evacuate before the storm hit to escape the risk of landslides and flooding.
