However, warnings will likely be issued for much of Japan by late this week since Jebi is expected to strike the country at Typhoon strength — likely category 1 or 2.The latest forecast update for Jebi suggests that typhoon will approach Japan early Tuesday with winds of around 100 miles per hour, according to The Weather Channel.
