Typhoon MALOU was born just in south of Japan Archipelago, which is in the northern side of 30 degree latitude. It is forecast to make landfall at Shikoku as soon as tonight. Although this is a tiny typhoon, it has a relatively well-organized cloud system around the center, and the attack of this typhoon is just after the torrential rain of Typhoon NAMTHEUN, hence this is a situation in Shikoku and Kii Peninsula that we need to pay attention to other disasters.

The landslide that occurred at Ootou village, Nara
A shocking video that captured a landslide from the beginning to the end from a short distance. This landslide was caused by heavy rainfall from Typhoon 200410, and Typhoon 200411 (in Japanese).
