On October 28, 2024, the city of Sanya in Hainan Province, South China, faced significant flooding consequences of Typhoon Trami. This situation prompted various coastal areas in both South and East China to implement proactive measures in light of the threat posed by the combined influences of Typhoons Trami and Kong-rey. Authorities initiated evacuation protocols, secured fishing vessels, and suspended educational activities in anticipation of severe weather, which included expectations of urban flooding and additional disasters.

According to forecasts from China’s National Meteorological Center (NMC), the influence of Trami and an accompanying cold front was expected to result in heavy rain across Hainan, especially on October 29, with estimated rainfall reaching up to 300 millimeters in certain areas. Although Typhoon Trami has weakened, warnings remained in place for potential severe weather conditions, such as landslides and mudslides, driven by sustained intense rainfall.

Meanwhile, Typhoon Kong-rey has intensified as it approaches Taiwan, expected to make landfall in the northern or central regions of the island later this week. This storm is anticipated to bring heavy rainfall to Taiwan and the coastal areas of China's Zhejiang and Fujian provinces, highlighting the need for residents to remain vigilant and prepared for any developments, as its trajectory continues to be unpredictable.

In Hainan, the provincial authorities took preventive measures, relocating over 1,000 workers from offshore sites and preparing local infrastructure for the incoming storms. Local schools in Sanya closed before noon on Monday, and various public facilities, including popular tourist sites, halted operations to prioritize safety. Furthermore, authorities in Fujian activated emergency protocols in anticipation of Typhoon impacts, emphasizing the necessity for continuous monitoring of the weather situation.

Despite the unusual number of typhoons this autumn, meteorologist Zhang Mingying indicated that the occurrence of such storms in this season is generally standard provided the conditions are favorable for their formation. Reports reveal that Typhoon Trami has devastated parts of the Philippines, claiming over a hundred lives and displacing millions as of the same date.
