While Japan is still recovering from Typhoon Phanfone's onslaught, another storm is wreaking havoc in the country.

Typhoon Vongfong, the strongest storm to hit Japan this year, has made landfall on the country's main islands. At least one person is missing and dozens injured while more than 300 flights were cancelled, according to BBC News.

Hundreds of thousands of people have to evacuate their homes due to the storm. The typhoon also greatly affected traffic, causing thousands of travelling people to be stranded on the road at the end of a three-day national holiday.

According to the Japan Meteorological Agency's statement reported on The Guardian, "Winds of up to 112 miles (180 km) per hour whipped ashore as the typhoon made landfall in Makurazaki on Kyushu island at around 8.30 am (2330 GMT)." 

The meteorological agency also added that Typhoon Vongfong could pass north-east through Japan at a speed of 30 kilometers per hour, adding that it could reach the Kanto region and Japan's capital, Tokyo, on Tuesday.

The typhoon affected numerous households. Stated on the same report from The Guardian, "Television footage showed the roof and walls of a house ripped off by gusts in Makurazaki, while huge waves were smashing into breakwaters."

The typhoon also caused power supply to be cut off in Okinawa when it toppled off trees and signposts. The West Japan Railway suspended all local services in the Kansai region of Western Japan on Monday.

The Guardian also reported, "NHK said at least 45 people had been injured in typhoon-related accidents so far, a figure which included the 23 injured as the monster storm pounded the southern Okinawa islands over the weekend. Local authorities issued evacuation advisories to 440,000 residents in southwestern Japan."

In Shizuoka, central Japan, three Chinese people fishing on the coast were swept away by vicious waves caused by Typhoon Vongfong on Sunday afternoon, adds The Guardian's report.

"Two of them were rescued safely but the remaining one aged 26 is still missing," the police spokesman said. 

The meteorological agency warned that the country should be prepared for landslides, floods, high waves, and heavy rains.

According to a report from Reuters, a major baseball game in Osaka city for the Pacific League playoff has been cancelled. It's the first time a Nippon Professional Baseball playoff game was postponed due to a typhoon.

Typhoon Vongfong whipped Japan a week after another strong tropical storm named Phanfone ravaged the country. The previous storm left 11 people dead or missing, The Guardian said. Super-typhoon Vongfong also swept through several South Pacific islands, including Guam.
