Heavy rain has lashed central and western Japan, prompting evacuation orders and flood warnings, with severe weather expected to continue. The rain will also cause transport disruptions, including the cancellation of Shinkansen high-speed trains and local prefectures were hit by successive thunderstorms that caused heavy downpours, including Kochi, Nara and Wakayama prefectures in western Japan. In Toyohashi in Aichi Prefecture in central Japan, local authorities announced an emergency evacuation of about 76,000 residents who live in the basins of the two rivers that flow through the city.
