Hello, everyone.
This is Enta.
The rain the other day was really heavy, wasn't it!!
I was in the Koshin region, too.
The heavy rain was so bad that we had no choice but to suspend work on site.
The project I'm currently working on is a riverbank reinforcement project involving stone masonry.
There's almost no water because it's diverted through pipes, but the other day there was an insane amount—already over 30 cm.
As you'd expect, if a mudslide were to hit, it would be dangerous, so we're canceling.
It seems things are getting pretty crazy in various places, so please be careful.
The mudslides are especially bad in the Atami area.
A friend sent me a video of the landslide in Atami—it's way worse than I imagined. pic.twitter.com/sWKVlNtnlU

It's been a while since I've seen a mudslide of this magnitude.
It’s not at a level that can be contained by a soil erosion control dam, is it?
I don't know yet exactly where in Atami this mudslide happened, but it's really scary.
Help me—I don't know what to do. pic.twitter.com/bod6nxeooT

I wonder if this will be designated as a severe disaster...
Now that the rain has stopped, I hope you’ll be careful for the next three days or so.
The mountains are still full of water.
We'll have to be careful for a while.
By the way, please be especially careful in areas located several hundred meters away from where slope stabilization work has been carried out or slope protection measures have been implemented.
It's a mountain's job to collapse!!
See you later.
