TOKYO—A powerful typhoon headed towards Japan’s main island on Sept. 30 forcing the cancellation or suspension of airline and train services and causing power outages and evacuations from areas still recovering from a typhoon last month.
Kansai International Airport in Osaka, western Japan, which was heavily flooded by a typhoon last month, said it had closed its runways from 11 a.m. local time on Sept. 30 until 6 a.m. on Sept. 31. The airport only fully reopened on Sept. 21.
