Typhoon Swings Toward Fukushima, Forecasters Warn
Fukushima is under threat of Typhoon Neoguri, the worst storm to hit Japan in 15 years, as it has taken a swing to eastern shores and due to hit Friday morning with massive amounts of rain, storm surge and landslides, forecasters have warned Thursday morning. TEPCO says it’s taking emergency measures at Fukushima.
“Water kept gushing into the house no matter how hard we tried to pour it out. We kept shoving out water all night,” said a woman in northern Yamagata Prefecture, where Neoguri caused huge downpours.
Workers were bracing for the storm, TEPCO nuclear plant operator said, referring to the storm. Although it has been downgraded from a typhoon to a ‘severe storm,’ it is anticipated to bring storm surges and landslides with its torrential downpours and strong winds.
“We are tying up cables and hoses… and making sure cranes and booms don’t fall,” a company spokesman said. “We will also beef up patrols in areas where water could flow in.”
“The storm’s massive downpours present an extra headache for the plant where workers are locked in a daily struggle to contain huge amounts of contaminated water, used to keep the destroyed reactors cool, as well as tainted groundwater leaking into the sea,” the Telegraph reported Thursday.
Typhoon Neoguri slammed iinto Japan’s mainland Thursday bringing widespread flooding, deaths, ripping trees from their roots, leaving houses half-buried under mud, as tens of thousands were urged to seek shelter.
Several people are dead, a string of damage has been left n its wake and residents in small communities are struggling to keep waves of dirty water from destroying their homes.
Over 500 houses in several prefectures are now flooded due to both the typhoon and heavy rain, according to public broadcaster NHK, with about 130,000 households urged to seek shelter.
Now, as Neoguri heads up Japan’s east coast, the world waits to see how it will impact the already crippled, dangerous Fukushima nuclear plant.
