Strong typhoon may hit Japan Aug. 28, shinkansen disruptions expected
KYODO NEWS
A strong typhoon is on course to approach western and eastern Japan on Wednesday or later, the weather agency said, possibly causing widespread disruption to shinkansen bullet train services.

The Japan Meteorological Agency said Sunday that Typhoon Shanshan, currently located south of the Japanese archipelago in the Pacific Ocean, is moving northwest at 30 kilometers per hour.

As the season's 10th typhoon edges closer, the agency warned of lightning, tornados, strong gusts and hail in areas in western and eastern Japan as well as the southwestern Nansei island chain as early as Sunday.

Bullet train services on the Tokaido Shinkansen line, which runs between Tokyo and Osaka, might be suspended on the entire route or on certain sections for two days from Wednesday, depending on the course and strength of the typhoon, the operator said.

Operations on the Joetsu, Hokuriku, Tohoku, Yamagata, Akita shinkansen lines may also be partially or fully canceled around Wednesday and Thursday, while the Sanyo Shinkansen line could face similar disruptions for three days from Tuesday, the operators said.

When Typhoon Ampil passed close to eastern Japan on Aug. 16, services on the Tokaido shinkansen line between Tokyo and Nagoya were canceled for the whole day, while about 650 international and domestic flights to and from Tokyo's Haneda airport and Narita airport, east of the capital, were canceled.
