A: Hey there! Have you seen the news lately?
   B: Nah, what's up?

A: Turns out we've got this tropical storm named Co-may approaching Okinawa's main island. It regained its strength last night.
   B: Wow, that's serious! How strong is it?

A: It's packing a punch, with winds of 72 kph and gusts reaching up to 108 kph! That's some wild wind!
   B: Whoa, I can imagine. They said something about the Okinawa and Amami regions too?

A: Yeah, those areas are expecting localized heavy rain and lightning. In fact, Minami-Daito Island in Okinawa had its highest recorded rainfall since 1979!
   B: Whoa, that's a lot of rain! What about the Amami region and Okinawa Prefecture?

A: They can expect around 150mm in the Amami region and 80mm in Okinawa over the next two days. And the winds aren't letting up, causing high waves in the ocean.
   B: That sounds rough... But there's another typhoon on its way too, right?

A: Yep! Typhoon Krosa is moving north and heading towards the Ogasawara Islands. They can expect winds of up to 90 kph with gusts even stronger, along with thunder showers from Tuesday to Wednesday.
   B: And they're expecting a lot of rain too, right?

A: Exactly! The islands could see up to 150mm over the next 24 hours and possibly more after that. With Krosa moving slower, its impact might linger and caution is advised against lightning strikes and gusty winds.

Japan&#039;s weather officials say tropical storm Co-may is approaching Okinawa&#039;s main island, after having regained strength Sunday night.
        
                    
                  
The storm is sustaining a maximum wind speed of 72 kilometers per hour, and a maximum instantaneous wind speed reaching up to 108 kilometers per hour.
        
                    
                  
Winds of 54 kilometers per hour or higher were observed within 500 kilometers northeast and within 165 kilometers southwest of the storm&#039;s center.
        
                    
                  
Developing rain clouds in limited areas of the Okinawa and Amami regions are being fed by atmospheric conditions rendered unstable by warm, moist air around the storm, and a high pressure system over the Pacific.
        
                    
                  
Minami-Daito Island in Okinawa Prefecture registered its highest recorded rainfall since 1979, when Japan&#039;s Meteorological Agency started taking statistics. Rainfall over the 72-hour period through 10:30 a.m. Monday morning hit 527.5 millimeters. That&#039;s more than four times the average rainfall for the island in July.
        
                    
                  
The Amami region can expect localized heavy rain accompanying lightning.
        
                    
                  
The 24-hour rainfall forecasts through Tuesday evening are 150 millimeters for the Amami region and 80 millimeters for Okinawa Prefecture.
        
                    
                  
Gusty winds are expected to continue in the Okinawa and Amami regions, creating high wave conditions in the ocean.
        
                    
                  
Meanwhile, Typhoon Krosa is moving north while maintaining its strong power. It is expected to get closest to the Ogasawara Islands overnight.
        
                    
                  
High winds of up to 90 kilometers per hour, gusting at 126 kilometers, are expected over the islands towards Wednesday.
        
                    
                  
Intermittent thunder showers are also expected from Tuesday to Wednesday with chances of localized severe rain.
        
                    
                  
Ogasawara Islands will get up to 150 millimeters of rain over the next 24 hours through Tuesday evening and 100 millimeters more over the next 24-hour period. Rainfall is likely to increase even after that.
        
                    
                  
With the typhoon expected to move slower from Tuesday to Wednesday, the storm&#039;s impact may linger. Caution is also advised against lightning strikes and gusty winds.
