Typhoon Vongfong, the second weather disturbance that hit Japan in just a week's time, has injured at least 31 people on Okinawa island. Pounding winds and rain forced people to leave their homes and seek higher ground as VongFong knocked down the power or electricity on the island. Airline companies have likewise cancelled some 384 flights in the Okinawa prefecture and the island of Kyushu. VongFong, which has weakened after crossing Okinawa, forced 200,000 people to evacuate on the island.
