27.08.2026 ⇢ The day of the Level 5 rain warning
⌨
The day was dominated by the Level 5 heavy rain emergency warning issued for Ishikawa and Toyama prefectures, triggered by a linear rain band that caused record rainfall, flooding, and landslides. The warning was downgraded to a Level 3 in the evening, but not before widespread damage and evacuations. The meteorological agency faced criticism for failing to predict the linear rain band, following a similar miss in Chiba earlier in the month. Concurrently, the death of avant-garde artist Yayoi Kusama at 97 was widely covered, with outlets highlighting her iconic polka dots and global influence. International news focused on the Nepal-China border flash flood, where the death toll rose to over 350, including five Japanese tourists missing.
