One person was killed and at least 20 others were injured following a strong earthquake that struck central portions of Japan on Friday afternoon, local time. In the wake of the temblor, AccuWeather meteorologists say heavy rainfall this weekend could add further hardships to residents and property owners beginning the early stages of cleanup operations. The magnitude 6.2 earthquake struck just off the west coast of Japan's main island of Honshu, according to the United States Geological Survey.
