As of 4:50 a.m. on October 13, Typhoon No. 23 (Nakri) was located approximately 90 kilometers south-southwest of Hachijojima, moving east-northeast at around 30 kilometers per hour. Meteorologists have warned that the typhoon is expected to pass near the Izu Islands on Monday morning.

Aogashima has already entered the typhoon’s gale zone, and Hachijojima is expected to follow shortly as winds intensify and conditions rapidly deteriorate. A maximum instantaneous wind speed of 28.7 meters per second was recorded on Hachijojima. Gusts near the typhoon’s center could reach up to 50 meters per second, posing a serious risk of destructive winds on both Hachijojima and Aogashima.

The Japan Meteorological Agency announced that satellite images from the Himawari-9 weather satellite are currently unavailable due to a communication failure. Although some functions have been restored through the backup satellite Himawari-8, key nighttime observation data, such as infrared imagery, remain inaccessible.

In other news, a new survey by the Japan Sports Agency reveals that people who participated in school sports clubs or athletic circles are significantly more likely to maintain regular exercise habits after graduation compared to those who did not.

Meanwhile, Japanese politics faces uncertainty following the abrupt collapse of the long-standing Liberal Democratic Party (LDP)-Komeito coalition ahead of the upcoming prime ministerial vote. This development complicates the path for Takaichi to take office and has intensified behind-the-scenes maneuvering among all major parties.

Earlier this week, Takaichi visited the Constitutional Democratic Party (CDP) headquarters, where she faced criticism over remarks describing an opposition figure as “damaged goods,” highlighting heightened tensions just two days before Komeito’s dramatic departure from the coalition.

Lastly, the number of foreign residents in Japan has reached a record high of nearly 4 million, according to the Immigration Services Agency. As of the end of June, 3,956,619 foreign nationals were living in the country, an increase of about 190,000 from the end of 2023, marking the highest total on record.

IND W vs SA W, ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 Weather Update: Rain Delays Start In Vizag, What Happens If The Match Gets Abandoned?

India are gearing up for a crucial third group-stage encounter in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 against South Africa at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam on Thursday, October 9th. Having won both their opening matches, India will be aiming for a dominant performance to strengthen their position as favourites to win the title. However, weather conditions are currently posing a major hurdle.

### What Happens if India Women vs South Africa Women Match Gets Washed Out?

According to AccuWeather, there is a significant chance of rain during match hours, with a 49–58% likelihood between 4 pm and 6 pm. While a complete washout is not certain, rain delays and reduced overs are possible. The toss could also be affected, as the city experienced rainfall around 3 pm just a day before the match, with similar conditions expected today.

With rains currently pouring, there is no update on when the match will start. However, if the rain washes out the match, there is no reserve day for group-stage fixtures in the Women’s World Cup. This means both India and South Africa will be awarded one point each.

### India Women vs South Africa Women Head-to-Head

These two sides have played against each other frequently in recent times. While South Africa have come close, India have prevailed in their last five encounters. However, in a high-stakes tournament like the World Cup, a rejuvenated South Africa will be looking to turn the tables.

### India Women vs South Africa Women Squad Updates

**India Squad:**
Harmanpreet Kaur (C), Smriti Mandhana, Pratika Rawal, Harleen Deol, Jemimah Rodrigues, Richa Ghosh, Deepti Sharma, Amanjot Kaur, Radha Yadav, Kranti Gaud, Renuka Singh, Arundhati Reddy, Sneh Rana, N. Shree Charani, Uma Chetri.

**South Africa Squad:**
Laura Wolvaardt (C), Tazmin Brits, Sune Luus, Marizanne Kapp, Anneke Bosch, Sinalo Jafta (WK), Chloe Tryon, Nadine de Klerk, Masabata Klaas, Ayabonga Khaka, Nonkululeko Mlaba, Annerie Dercksen, Nondumiso Shangase, Karabo Meso, Tumi Sekhukhune.

Priscilla nears major hurricane status in Pacific as new tropical storm swirls in the Atlantic

Hurricane Priscilla Nears Category 3 Status as Tropical Storm Jerry Strengthens in Atlantic

MIAMI (AP) — Hurricane Priscilla was approaching Category 3 strength on Tuesday in the Pacific, while a new tropical storm was gaining power in the Atlantic, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center.

Located just off the west coast of Mexico, Priscilla was spinning with maximum sustained winds of around 105 mph (169 kph) and moving northwest at 9 mph (15 kph). As of Tuesday night, the hurricane was centered about 185 miles (295 kilometers) southwest of the southern tip of Baja California.

On Tuesday, the outer bands of Hurricane Priscilla were extending across the Mexican state of Baja California Sur. The Mexican government responded by issuing a tropical storm watch for Baja California Sur, from Cabo San Lucas to Cabo San Lazaro.

In a preventive measure, the government of Baja California Sur canceled classes at all educational centers starting Tuesday in Los Cabos and La Paz. They also set up a dozen shelters in Los Cabos for residents living in high-risk areas.

Parts of southwestern Mexico could receive up to 4 inches (10 centimeters) of rain from Priscilla through Wednesday, raising the risk of flash flooding, especially in the states of Michoacán and Colima, forecasters warned.

Priscilla is expected to weaken starting Wednesday. A major hurricane is defined as Category 3 or higher, with wind speeds of at least 111 mph (180 kph). Swells from Priscilla were already reaching the coast of Mexico, causing life-threatening surf and dangerous rip currents.

Atlantic Tropical Storm Jerry Strengthens

In the Atlantic Ocean, Tropical Storm Jerry maintained top winds of 50 mph (85 kph) early Wednesday. The storm was centered approximately 950 miles (1,530 kilometers) east-southeast of the northern Leeward Islands and moving west-northwest at 23 mph (37 kph).

Forecasters said Jerry is expected to strengthen into a hurricane within the next day or two. Swells from Jerry were anticipated to reach the Leeward Islands by Thursday, with the storm’s core moving near or north of the northern Leeward Islands late Thursday and Friday.

A tropical storm watch was issued for Barbuda and Anguilla, St. Barthelemy, St. Martin, and Sint Maarten as a precaution.

Other Pacific Activity

Farther out in the Pacific, Tropical Storm Octave was weakening about 750 miles (1,205 kilometers) southwest of the southern tip of Baja California. It was moving east-southeast at 7 mph (11 kph) with maximum sustained winds of 45 mph (75 kph).

Officials continue to monitor the evolving storm activity as the hurricane season progresses.

‘Rhinos drown…roads turn rivers’: Bengal floods leave trail of destruction

**Rhinos Drown, Roads Turn Rivers: Bengal Floods Leave Trail of Destruction**
*By Snehil Singh | October 6, 2025, 5:13 PM*

Heavy, unabating rains in West Bengal have caused significant destruction, claiming the lives of at least 28 people and leaving dozens reported missing. The worst-hit area is Darjeeling, where the town of Mirik alone has witnessed 13 deaths, with many others still missing as rescue operations continue.

The severe downpours across North Bengal have triggered landslides, causing roads to collapse and stranding numerous tourists during the Durga Puja vacation period.

**Wildlife Impact**

A heartbreaking viral video from near Jaldapara National Park shows rhinos floating in floodwaters and even chasing people. Jaldapara is renowned for its population of the one-horned rhinoceros and other endangered species, many of which are severely affected by the floods.

The devastating weather has not spared neighboring Nepal either. According to *The Kathmandu Post*, water-induced disasters there have resulted in 47 deaths and nine people missing.

**Rescue Efforts**

In the midst of the chaos, elephants have emerged as unexpected heroes. Ravikant Jha, Assistant Wildlife Warden of Jaldapara, shared how elephants are aiding rescue efforts by transporting stranded tourists after a wooden bridge near a lodge collapsed. “Our elephants have brought 2-4 tourists across the river because the bridge broke due to rain,” he said.

Additionally, the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) has been actively involved in flood and water rescue operations. They have successfully rescued over 160 people from the affected areas—105 by boat and another 55 either airlifted or pulled across using zip lines in Jalpaiguri. During these operations, one deceased individual was also recovered.

**Weather Forecast**

The India Meteorological Department has forecasted that scattered light to moderate rains will continue in the sub-Himalayan regions until October 12. Isolated thunderstorms, gusty winds reaching 30-40 km/h, and lightning are expected to persist until Tuesday morning.

Mumbai Weather Update: City Wakes Up To Clear Skies After Overnight Showers; No Rainfall Alert Issued

Mumbai Wakes Up to Bright Sunshine and Pleasant Breeze Following Light Showers

Mumbai experienced bright sunshine and a pleasant breeze on Monday morning after light to moderate showers soaked parts of the suburbs late Sunday night. The first week of October signals a retreat in monsoon activity along the Konkan coast, with rainfall intensity gradually decreasing across the region.

According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), weather conditions across Mumbai, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Palghar, Raigad, Ratnagiri, and Sindhudurg districts have largely stabilized following several days of intermittent drizzle and moderate rain. As of October 6, no weather alerts have been issued for any district in the Konkan belt, providing some much-needed respite to residents after weeks of unsettled weather.

Weather Update for Mumbai & MMR

In Mumbai, Thane, and Navi Mumbai, Monday morning saw mostly stable weather characterized by cloudy but dry conditions. The IMD has ruled out chances of heavy rainfall throughout the day. Maximum temperatures are expected to reach around 31°C, while minimum temperatures will hover near 25°C. Despite the clear skies, humid conditions are likely to make the day feel warmer and slightly uncomfortable, especially for outdoor commuters.

In Palghar district, the weather is expected to fluctuate between bright sunshine and occasional light drizzle in some pockets, with other areas remaining completely dry. Morning skies remained partly cloudy, with temperatures ranging between 29°C and 31°C. The high humidity is anticipated to cause mild discomfort during the afternoon hours.

Further south along the Konkan coast, in Raigad, Ratnagiri, and Sindhudurg districts, calm weather prevailed following several days of light rainfall. The day is expected to remain largely dry with gentle to moderate sea conditions. Temperatures in these districts are likely to stay close to 30°C. Residents along the coastal belt may experience humid and slightly warm conditions, especially during midday hours.

Light Rains Expected From Tomorrow

The IMD has forecasted that light rain may return to some parts of the Konkan and interior Maharashtra starting October 7, marking a brief revival of post-monsoon showers. However, for now, Mumbaikars can expect relatively dry and stable weather over the next 24 hours. Clear skies, moderate humidity, and calm winds will offer a brief but welcome break from the persistent rains experienced throughout September.
