  • Typhoon Kent was a mid-season typhoon that struck southern Japan during August 1992. An area of convection developed east of the International Date Line. Tracking west-northwestward, a tropical depression developed on August 5, and the next day, intensified into a tropical storm. On August 8, increased vertical wind shear caused convection to decrease, although Kent strengthened into a typhoon on the next day. An eye then appeared as conditions aloft became more conducive, and on August 11, Kent attained its peak intensity. Under the influence of a subtropical ridge located to its north, the typhoon initially continued to move west-northwestward before turning towards Kyushu. The storm steadily weakened prior to making landfall on August 18 just below typhoon intensity. The mountainous terrain of Japan accelerated the weakening trend, and on August 20, Kent dissipated. The cyclone was the third to hit Japan during August 1992, the second highest number of storms to hit Japan in a month. The typhoon dropped heavy rainfall across western portions of the Japanese archipelago, peaking at 1,286 mm (50.6 in) in Hidegadake. Nationwide, eight fatalities were reported and two others sustained injuries. Rough seas in Tokushima Prefecture swept away five of six family members, with the sixth severely wounded. Another individual drowned in Kyoto Prefecture and a swimmer was injured offshore Tottori Prefecture. A total of 1,561 houses were destroyed while 379 others were flooded. Furthermore, two vessels were damaged. Many ferries linking Honshu and Kyushu were cancelled. Monetary damage totaled ¥1.9 billion (US$15 million). (en)
