Typhoon Dujuan struck the Tokyo region in Japan around September 21-23, bringing record-breaking rainfall, violent winds of up to 144 km/h (89 mph), and triggering deadly landslides in Chiba and Kanagawa prefectures. Reports indicate at least four to six people were killed and at least 22 injured, with search and rescue operations underway for people trapped in collapsed homes. Tens of thousands of houses near Tokyo lost power, and travel was disrupted across the region. As Dujuan moved away from Japan, authorities downgraded most heavy rain and landslide warnings, though cleanup and recovery continued. The storm was described as part of a year of intense rain, floods and cyclones affecting regions worldwide.
