"Former Typhoon #Shanshan, now a severe tropical storm, is moving slowly up the southern half of Japan, bringing feet of rain, triggering #landslides and unleashing #tornadoes. The storm is far from over, however, as flooding rain will continue to fall through early next week due to the storm's slow trek across the island nation.
