Seoul, South Korea (AP) -- An approaching typhoon has whipped up strong winds, waves and heavy rain in southern South Korea, leaving one person missing and one injured, while another typhoon headed for western Japan on Thursday.
Typhoon Soulik is forecast to make landfall at the southwestern town of Seocheon at 3 a.m. Friday, dumping 3-6 inches (7-15 centimeters) of rain and gusts of up to 160 kilometers (100 miles) per hour, meteorologists said. It is expected to weaken after crossing the Korean Peninsula's mountainous terrain.
