Powerful typhoon Neoguri pummeled western Japan on Thursday after sweeping through Okinawa Prefecture, where it triggered floods and knocked out power. The storm brought deadly flooding to other parts of the country. At least three people were reported dead nationwide, and 32 injured. One of the biggest storms ever to strike Japan at this time of year, Neoguri made landfall in Kyushu at Akune, Kagoshima Prefecture, and was forecast to travel up the Pacific coast to major cities, including Osaka, Kyoto and Tokyo.
