Good news! According to this, when the typhoon hits Kumamoto, it is now predicted to be a Category 1 tropical storm – not a Category 4 as was predicted earlier. With winds of 119-153 kilometers per hour (74-95 miles per hour), a Category 1 storm can still cause serious damage but, obviously, it’s no where near as dangerous as a Category 4.
