East Japan reeling from Typhoon Dujuan

People in eastern Japan are reeling after Typhoon Dujuan dumped record amounts of rain on the region earlier this week. Ten people have died and four are still unaccounted for.

Levees on the banks of Lake Inbanuma in Chiba Prefecture collapsed, inundating surrounding areas. The water has yet to recede in some places.

A fish farm that raises ornamental carp was also flooded. The operating company says a total of 100,000 carp were washed away.

The fish farm's president Tani Kenji said "Nothing like this ever happened before. I'm in shock. I have no idea how to keep our business going."

In the City of Sakura, the fire brigade was still pumping out flooded areas.

Emergency services received a report on Tuesday that a person had gone missing after escaping from a flooded car. The man was later found and rushed to hospital, but was pronounced dead.

Prolonged heavy rains in mountainous areas triggered the landslides which accounted for many of the deaths.

Rescue workers are still searching for those who remain missing.

Although the storm has passed, people's daily lives continue to be affected. In Mobara City, some traffic signals were out of service Wednesday.

As of around 6 p.m., more than 20,000 households were without electricity in Chiba and Kanagawa Prefectures.
