Typhoon tracking toward Fukushima, to hit area in 2 days

• Threat of mudslides, flooding
• Soaking rainfall predicted for days after storm

Accuweather, Oct. 7, 2013: Wind gusts to 195 kph (120 mph) were felt across Yoron Island, as the eye of Danas passed directly overhead. [...] areas affected by the typhoon will have to contend with potentially life-threatening flooding and damaging winds. [...] Danas will still produce locally damaging winds along with the threat for flooding rainfall and mudslides as it moves across northern Honshu Wednesday into Wednesday night. [...] Another cold front will then bring the threat for a soaking rainfall to much of Japan from later Friday into Saturday.
