The imminent passage of Typhoon Roke on Tokyo, the 15/mo of the season, took the warning to the maximum levels for heavy rains and strong winds expected, with a provisional budget that includes 6 deaths and 2 missing, according to the average Nipponese . Much of the rail lines, such as those that depart from Shinjuku station, one of the most congested in the world, were stopped because of the winds that threaten the security of service, while as of this morning's efforts are in place to avoid that the water ends up flooding the subway, to start from Shinjuku.
The bullet train 'Shinkansen' has been suspended between Tokyo and Osaka, while the offices in the capital were unusually empty as early as the early afternoon to avoid the block ahead of the transposed public. The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) has invited to give "the highest possible vigilance" until Roke has not left the territory of the Japanese, probably tomorrow afternoon.
