Double typhoon threat: Mekkhala and Higos approach Japan and could impact Kinki, Tokai and Kanto
The Japanese archipelago is preparing for a challenging weather scenario this weekend, with the simultaneous approach of two storm systems. Typhoon No. 7, known as Mekkhala, and the newly formed typhoon No. 8, Higos, are on routes that threaten several regions of the country, including Kinki, Tokai and Kanto, configuring a double alert situation. The occurrence of two active typhoons moving towards the same area of concern is unusual and intensifies the need for monitoring and precaution.

The Japan Meteorological Agency said Typhoon Mekkhala, classified as very strong, is slowly moving north, east of the Philippines. Its current trajectory indicates a possible significant influence on Japanese territory in the coming days, requiring continued attention from authorities and the population.
In parallel, Typhoon Higos is progressing westward at a speed of 20 km/h, having been located over the Mariana Islands at around 9pm on the 23rd. The formation and advance of Higos add to the threat already posed by Mekkhala, creating a complex meteorological dynamic that demands increased vigilance and contingency plans in potentially affected areas.
