Korea is bracing for more heavy rain as typhoon Noru moves closer.

The "strong" typhoon, 1,600 kilometers southeast of Tokyo and heading northeast with 970 hectopascal pressure as of 3 p.m. Monday, could change course to west on Friday, according to the Korea Meteorological Administration.

The weather watchdog said the typhoon was packing winds ranging from 126 and 155 kilometers per hour.

The Korean monsoon season, which usually ends before July 24, is lasting longer this year due to spontaneous typhoon movements.
