Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Tropical Storm Nari made landfall near Wakayama, Honshu Island, Japan early on July 27, 2019, bringing heavy rain to the region. According to The Japan Times, the city of Wakayama recorded rainfall of 47.5 mm (1.9 in) in an hour early in the morning. Nari was downgraded to a tropical depression by that same afternoon.

The storm began as a weak system developed into a tropical depression on July 24 west of the Bonin Islands. Identified as 07W, it strengthened and was named Tropical Cyclone Nari on July 26 as it tracked northward towards southern Japan. The sixth-named storm of the Pacific typhoon system, the short-lived storm reached maximum sustained winds of about 40 miles per hour (65 km/hour) before weakening over land.
