- Typhoon Dujuan battered Tokyo and eastern Japan, causing record rainfall, strong winds and landslides, including 832 mm of rain in 48 hours on Izu Oshima Island, Tokyo, Japan.
- Izu Oshima is a volcanic island in the Izu Islands of Tokyo, Japan, in the Pacific Ocean.
- Dujuan formed over the North western Pacific Ocean and became Japan’s 25th named storm of the season.
- Warm ocean waters and rising moist air helped strengthen the tropical cyclone, while the Coriolis effect caused its rotation.
- Interaction with Japan’s autumn rain front (Akisame zensen) intensified rainfall, flooding and landslides.
