Kagoshima Prefecture Warned of Linear Rainbands

Japan's Meteorological Agency has warned that linear rainbands could form in Kagoshima Prefecture (excluding the Amami region) from early morning to evening on May 27. Warm and humid air flowing towards the front is expected to make atmospheric conditions highly unstable starting from the night of May 26. This could rapidly increase the risk of disasters, prompting residents to exercise caution.
