Weather tracker: Japanese islands brace for Dujuan to become a typhoon again

Tropical Storm Dujuan is currently tracking near the Japanese coast, with meteorologists anticipating the system will regain typhoon status as it approaches the Izu Islands. Although the storm is not expected to make a direct landfall on the Japanese mainland, it remains a significant weather event for the region.

While Dujuan impacts the Pacific, global weather patterns show a contrast in activity, as the Atlantic hurricane season is currently experiencing an unusually quiet period. Dujuan previously reached typhoon intensity on Friday before fluctuating in strength as it moved along the coast.
