An area of disturbed weather formed near Pohnpei in late-July\u00a01992, and after an increase in thunderstorm activity, a tropical depression developed on August\u00a03. After passing near Guam, Janis tracked generally westward, and on August\u00a05, the storm was believed to have attained typhoon intensity. After intensifying at a brisk pace, Janis attained peak intensity on August\u00a06 near Okinawa. Thereafter, the typhoon began to weaken and accelerate as it recurved towards Kyushu, where it made landfall on the next day. Land interaction took its toll on the typhoon as it tracked northeast, paralleling the western coast of Honshu. On August\u00a09, Janis transitioned into an extratropical low over Hokkaido.Five fishing boats sank offshore Taiwan, where one fisherman was killed, and six others were listed missing. Typhoon Janis was the second of two consecutive systems to move over the Japanese archipelago, with Tropical Storm Irving proceeding it. Nationwide, twelve fatalities were reported and another was initially reported as missing. Sixty-seven others sustained injuries. A total 1,561\u00a0houses were destroyed while 1,508\u00a0others were flooded. In addition, 47\u00a0ships and 4,802\u00a0ha (11,870 acres) were damaged. Strong winds and torrential rains resulted in 350,000\u00a0customers losing power. An eight-hour suspension of high speed rail to Kyushu stranded over 20,000\u00a0people at Hiroshima Station. Greater than 80\u00a0domestic flights in Kyushu were cancelled, leaving an estimated 45,000\u00a0travelers stranded. Damage was estimated at \u00a574\u00a0billion ($584\u00a0million USD).[nb 1][nb 2] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsMeteorological history[edit]Guam and Taiwan[edit]Japan[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]Meteorological history[edit] Map plotting the storm’s track and intensity, according to the Saffir\u2013Simpson scaleMap key (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4 \u00a0 Tropical\u00a0depression (\u226438\u00a0mph,\u00a0\u226462\u00a0km\/h)\u00a0 Tropical\u00a0storm (39\u201373\u00a0mph,\u00a063\u2013118\u00a0km\/h)\u00a0 Category\u00a01 (74\u201395\u00a0mph,\u00a0119\u2013153\u00a0km\/h)\u00a0 Category\u00a02 (96\u2013110\u00a0mph,\u00a0154\u2013177\u00a0km\/h)\u00a0 Category\u00a03 (111\u2013129\u00a0mph,\u00a0178\u2013208\u00a0km\/h)\u00a0 Category\u00a04 (130\u2013156\u00a0mph,\u00a0209\u2013251\u00a0km\/h)\u00a0 Category\u00a05 (\u2265157\u00a0mph,\u00a0\u2265252\u00a0km\/h)\u00a0 Unknown The tropical disturbance that would later mature into Typhoon Janis formed near Pohnpei in the eastern Caroline Islands towards the end of July 1992.[1] At 06:00\u00a0UTC on July\u00a030, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) started tracking the system.[2] Increased convective development led to the issuance of a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert at 13:00\u00a0UTC on August\u00a02. Intensification continued through the morning hours, and at 00:00\u00a0UTC, the JTWC issued the first warning on Tropical Depression 10W,[1] with the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) following suit at the same time.[3][nb 3][nb 4] At 14:39\u00a0UTC, a Hurricane hunter aircraft was able to identify a well-defined center as well as winds of 55\u00a0km\/h (35\u00a0mph). Passing near Guam and moving into the Philippine Sea, the depression organized further[1] and was upgraded to a tropical storm at 18:00\u00a0UTC on August\u00a03 by both the JTWC and JMA.[6] At around this time, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) also monitored the storm and assigned it with the local name Gloring.[7] Midday on August\u00a04, the JMA classified Janis as a severe tropical storm.[3] Six hours later, Janis was declared a typhoon by the JTWC,[1] with the JMA doing the same at 00:00\u00a0UTC on August\u00a05.[3] According to the JTWC, Janis entered a period of rapid deepening, intensifying 65\u00a0km\/h (40\u00a0mph) during the day of August\u00a05.[2] At 00:00\u00a0UTC on August\u00a06, the JTWC increased the intensity of the storm to 215\u00a0km\/h (130\u00a0mph), equivalent to a low-end Category\u00a04 hurricane on the United States-based Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Operationally, the storm was believed to have attained winds 230\u00a0km\/h (145\u00a0mph), based on Dvorak estimates from polar orbiting satellite imagery. However, in post-storm analysis, the JTWC determined that due to the high resolution of the satellite, the eye temperature of the storm was overestimated, prompting the agency to revise its Dvorak methods to better match intensity estimates derived from geostationary satellites.[1]After tracking towards the west-northwest during its early stages, Typhoon Janis turned towards the north-northeast[8] and passed 165\u00a0km (105\u00a0mi) east of Okinawa.[1] The JTWC estimated that Janis leveled off in intensity. However, the JMA estimates that Janis was still strengthening, and did not attain its highest intensity until 18:00\u00a0UTC on August\u00a06, when the agency reported winds of 175\u00a0km\/h (110\u00a0mph) and a barometric pressure of 935\u00a0mbar (27.61\u00a0inHg).[6] After its peak intensity, the typhoon began to weaken and accelerate as it recurved towards Kyushu; this turn was correctly predicted by the JTWC.[1] At the time of landfall on Kyushu late on August 7, the JTWC and JMA estimated winds of 175\u00a0km\/h (110\u00a0mph) and 135\u00a0km\/h (85\u00a0mph) respectively.[6] Over Kyushu, land interaction took its toll on the typhoon,[1] and the JTWC and JMA downgraded Janis to tropical storm intensity on August 8.[6] The tropical storm moved to the northeast, paralleling the western coast of Honshu. At noon on August\u00a09, Janis transitioned into an extratropical low over Hokkaido.[1] It was lasted noted by the JMA around noon on August\u00a013 near the International Date Line.[3]Guam and Taiwan[edit]During its formative stages, Jannis brought winds gusting to 55\u00a0km\/h (35\u00a0mph) and 64\u00a0mm (2.25\u00a0in) of rain in 24 hours to the island of Guam, but caused no major damage.[1] As Janis passed to the east of Taiwan, one fisherman was killed, and six individuals were missing when 8\u00a0m (26\u00a0ft) waves sank five fishing boats.[9]Japan[edit]The typhoon dropped heavy rainfall across much of the Japanese archipelago, across western and northern portions of Japan.[10] A peak rainfall total of 468\u00a0mm (18.4\u00a0in) was observed at Nagaoka District.[11] A peak hourly rainfall total of 66\u00a0mm (2.6\u00a0in) was observed in Ube.[12] Meanwhile, a peak daily precipitation total of 435\u00a0mm (17.1\u00a0in) fell in Kuraoka.[13] A wind gust of 57\u00a0km\/h (35\u00a0mph) was recorded in the city of Makurazaki.[14] An airport at Amami Oshima measured winds of 127\u00a0km\/h (79\u00a0mph) and gusts of 197\u00a0km\/h (122\u00a0mph). Kadena Air Base reported maximum winds of 55\u00a0km\/h (35\u00a0mph), gusting to 95 kilometres per hour (60\u00a0mph). The Marine Corps Air Station Futenma observed peak winds of 67\u00a0km\/h (42\u00a0mph) and wind gusts of gust of 99\u00a0km\/h (62\u00a0mph).[1]All transportation was cancelled on Okinawa and the storm resulted in \u00a527.4\u00a0million in damage.[15] A total of 8,293\u00a0households lost power in Tokushima Prefecture, and 25 roads were damaged in 156\u00a0location. Nearly 6,000\u00a0ha (14,825 acres) of crops were damaged. Prefecturewide, damage was estimated at \u00a51.87 billion.[16] A 54-year-old farmer near Susaki was killed when he was struck by a falling rock.[17] Across K\u014dchi Prefecture, two people were wounded. Roads were damaged in 145\u00a0spots and 3,282\u00a0ha (8,110 acres) of crops were damaged. A total of 19,855\u00a0houses in 17\u00a0municipalities, including Susaki, suffered a blackout after falling trees downed power lines. Damage in the prefecture exceeded \u00a52.86\u00a0billion.[18] Twenty-four flights were cancelled to and from Takamatsu Airport. A total of 964\u00a0homes lost power while 220 others were destroyed.[19] Five people were hurt in Ehime Prefecture. Nearly 45,000\u00a0households lost power and almost 7,000\u00a0ha (17,295 acres) of crops were damaged, amounting to \u00a51.85\u00a0billion.[20] An 83-year-old woman from Kagoshima Prefecture was killed in the storm when a taxi was overturned by high winds.[21] Twenty-four people were injured and sixty homes were damaged.[22] Flooding and landslides forced 500\u00a0people to evacuate from the slopes of Mount Unzen.[23] Five people were wounded and sixteen individuals lost their homes in Oita Prefecture. Damage estimates were placed at \u00a515.1\u00a0billion.[24] Elsewhere, damage in Saga Prefecture totaled to \u00a52.15\u00a0billion.[25] Strong winds injured eight people in Fukuoka Prefecture, including three by falling glass. Twenty-eight homes were damaged and ten were destroyed. Damage was estimated at \u00a520.6\u00a0billion.[26]On Honshu, 830\u00a0ha (2,050 acres) of crops were damaged in Wakayama prefecture, which was estimated at \u00a5461\u00a0million.[27] Three people sustained injuries and twenty-five homes were damaged in Hy\u014dgo Prefecture.[28] A total of 120\u00a0dwellings were damaged or destroyed and roads were damaged in 189\u00a0spots. Across five cities, nearly 13,000 lost power. Damage was estimated at \u00a5710\u00a0million.[29] A total of 917\u00a0power lines were downed in Hiroshima Prefecture. Forty flights were cancelled at the Hiroshima Airport while roads were damaged at more than locations. Across the southern portion of the prefecture, 19 landslides happened. Additionally, 428\u00a0homes were damaged and 25\u00a0other houses were destroyed. Damage estimates reached \u00a52.11\u00a0billion.[30] Heavy rain caused rivers alongside the Japan National Route 315 to overflow its banks, which resulted in street flooding. A total of 165\u00a0homes were damaged in Yamaguchi Prefecture. Damaged was estimated at \u00a51.08\u00a0billion.[31] Five people were killed in Kyoto Prefecture, including two swimmers that drowned offshore.[32] Twenty-two trains were cancelled on the afternoon on August\u00a09 in Tottori prefecture.[33] Further north, lightning strikes led to 5,500\u00a0units losing power in Wakabayashi-ku, 1,300 others on \u014cshima Island, and 1,300\u00a0others on Yamamoto.[34] Six dwellings were damaged in Aomori Prefecture. There, 12\u00a0roads were damaged and 2,556\u00a0power units were knocked out.[35] Seventy trains were cancelled in Hokkaido Prefecture. A total of 101\u00a0homes were damaged and 53 were destroyed, which resulted 437\u00a0homeless individuals. Sixty households were ordered to evacuate by officials. Damage there was roughly \u00a57.2\u00a0billion.[36]Typhoon Janis was the final of two successive systems to move over the Japanese archipelago,[1] with Tropical Storm Irving proceeding it.[37] Nationwide, twelve fatalities were reported and another was initially reported as missing.[38] Sixty-seven others sustained injuries. A total 1,561\u00a0houses were destroyed while 1,508 others were flooded.[10] Moreover, 47\u00a0ships and 4,802\u00a0ha (11,870 acres) were damaged.[10] High winds and torrential rains caused the temporary loss of electricity to 350,000\u00a0homes across the southernmost of Japan’s four main islands.[21] An eight-hour suspension of high speed rail to Kyushu stranded over 20,000\u00a0people at Hiroshima Station.[9] Over 80\u00a0domestic flights in Kyushu were cancelled,[9] which left an estimated 45,000\u00a0travelers stranded.[17] Monetary damage totaled \u00a574\u00a0billion (US$584\u00a0million).[10]See also[edit]^ All currencies are converted from Japanese yen to United States Dollars using this with an exchange rate of the year 1992.^ All damage totals are in 1992 values of their respective currencies.^ The Japan Meteorological Agency is the official Regional Specialized Meteorological Center for the western Pacific Ocean.[4]^ Wind estimates from the JMA and most other basins throughout the world are sustained over 10\u00a0minutes, while estimates from the United States-based Joint Typhoon Warning Center are sustained over 1\u00a0minute. 10-minute winds are about 1.14 times the amount of 1-minute winds.[5]References[edit]^ a b c d e f g h i j k l Joint Typhoon Warning Center; Naval Pacific Meteorology and Oceanography Center (1993).
