Typhoon Songda, which occurred in May 2011, initially approached the Philippines but shifted its course, impacting Japan instead. The typhoon made landfall in Wakayama Prefecture, Japan, and then moved east-northeast, transitioning into an extratropical storm as it weakened. This event caused various weather disruptions, including high winds and heavy rainfall, leading to marine warnings and safety precautions in the affected regions.
