Hagabis, this year's nineteenth named typhoon will cause damage and coastal flooding in the U.S. territories of Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. It may also hit Japan in the coming week.
The islands of Saipan, Tinian, Alamagan and Pagan, which are part of the U.S. territory of the Northern Mariana Islands, have been issued a typhoon warning by the National Weather Service. Two other islands in the territory, Rota and Agrihan, have been issued tropical storm warnings.
Guam, another U.S. territory, is also under a tropical storm warning from the NWS. The island will likely see both"damaging winds" and"numerous showers and thunderstorms" Monday night and Tuesday as a result of the typhoon,The areas are expected to see coastal flooding, according to the Weather Channel.
Meteorologists predict that Hagibis will turn to the northwest and then northward after affecting Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands, the Weather Channel reported. This would put mainland Japan in its path. Though Hagibis has not yet made contact with any Japanese islands, forecasts of its effects are already affecting things there. The Irish rugby team is set to face off against the Japanese team in the city of Fukuoka on the island of Kyushu this Saturday,but may have to move the location of the game because the island is currently in the path of the typhoon.
