BEIJING -- China's National Meteorological Observatory issued a warning on Monday morning against the approaching Typhoon Jangmi. According to the latest forecast at 6 a.m., the eye of Jangmi was 210 kilometers southeast off the Cangnan County in Zhejiang Province, packing winds of up to 126 km per hour. The super-strong typhoon had eased and would continue to move northward at 15 km per hour, the observatory said. It said in a Monday notice that Jangmi might divert to move northeast during the daytime, but it could not rule out the possibility that the typhoon might make landfall at coastal areas along Fujian and Zhejiang provinces. Jangmi made landfall in Yilan, Taiwan at 3:40 p.m. Sunday, packing winds of up to 183.6 km per hour in the eye. The typhoon was expected to bring heavy rains and high winds to some regions in Taiwan, Fujian and Zhejiang. Some areas would hit by rain storms. The observatory advised ships and fishing boats to seek shelters at ports and urged local authorities prepare for possible floods and landslides. |
