Typhoon Wipha Impact

Heavy rains brought by Typhoon Wipha have caused widespread disruption across southeast coastal areas in China, with Fujian Province experiencing severe flooding and the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region facing urban hazards from fallen trees.

In Xiapu County, Ningde City of Fujian, continuous downpours since Monday triggered multiple landslides. In Qinzhou City of Guangxi, typhoon-force winds toppled over 20 roadside trees across major thoroughfares. Both regions remain on high alert as the impact brought by Wipha lingers, with forecasters predicting additional rainfall through Wednesday.
