“This could be very problematic. I have been tracking storms regularly since Katrina. Super heavy rainful and winds could overwhelm any number of conditions at Fukushima. Add the volume of rainwater on top of whats flowing under and above ground already.”

Tropical storm Man-yi is forecast to strike Japan as a typhoon at about 21:00 GMT on 15 September. Data supplied by the US Navy and Air Force Joint Typhoon Warning Center suggest that the point of landfall will be near 33.7 N, 137.4 E. Man-yi is expected to bring 1-minute maximum sustained winds to the region of around 120 km/h (74 mph). Wind gusts in the area may be considerably higher.

According to the Saffir-Simpson damage scale the potential property damage and flooding from a storm of Man-yi's strength (category 1) at landfall includes: Storm surge generally 1.2-1.5 metres (4-5 feet) above normal. No real damage to building structures. Damage primarily to unanchored mobile homes, shrubbery, and trees. Some damage to poorly constructed signs. Some coastal road flooding and minor pier damage. There is also the potential for flooding further inland due to heavy rain.
