After this, it is possible that there will be localized very heavy rain accompanied by thunder and heavy rain in the evening. Pay close attention to landslide disasters, and watch out for flooding of low-lying lands, rising water levels and flooding of rivers.

Signs of landslide disaster
When a landslide disaster occurs due to heavy rain, there is a phenomenon that serves as a precursor. Please keep this in mind in case of emergency.
The first is that cracks can form in cliffs and ground.
The second is hearing the crackling of wood, the clashing of stones, and the smell of earth.
The third is that the water in wells, rivers, and springs becomes turbid. Even if the spring water stops, it is one of the harbingers.
The fourth is that water springs out from cliffs and slopes.
In addition, there are pebbles falling apart, rumbling of the ground and rumbling of the mountains, the water level of rivers dropping even though it continues to rain, and trees tilting. In times like these, the risk of landslides increases. Call out to people around you immediately and evacuate to a safe place.
