"TOKYO - A tropical storm rumbled up Japan's most populated island
Saturday, bringing torrential rains that stranded thousands of travelers
and triggered flooding and mudslides. Dozens of people were injured and
three remained missing a day after the storm claimed three lives.
Etau rated a typhoon until Friday moved overland along Japan's main island
of Honshu before veering into the Sea of Japan, the nation's Meteorological
Agency said. It bypassed Tokyo but drenched the capital with a downpour
that lasted through the afternoon. "
