WHAT HAPPENED
Tropical Storm Dolphin made landfall in eastern China on Sunday evening, bringing heavy rain and causing flooding in some areas, according to the Associated Press. The storm had maximum sustained winds of 151 kph (93 mph) when it made landfall in Taizhou in Zhejiang province. As of Monday, the storm had weakened, with maximum sustained winds of 65 kph (40 mph), but authorities warned of risks of severe flooding and landslides.
The storm led to the evacuation of over a million people from their homes, with authorities in Yueqing, a city in Zhejiang province, searching for people trapped in flooded areas, as reported by state broadcaster CCTV. According to the China Meteorological Administration, Dolphin was moving northwest at 15 to 20 kilometers per hour (9 to 12 mph) and was expected to continue weakening until it dissipates. The Guardian reported that more than a million people were evacuated in China as record rainfall was dumped on Shanghai.
The storm is significant as it is the strongest to hit China this year, with the potential to cause severe flooding and landslides in some areas. The large-scale evacuation and flood warnings suggest that the authorities are taking the situation seriously, highlighting the potential risks and consequences of the storm.
