Residents and businesses have succeeded in Hong Kong and at least 10 cities in southern China on Tuesday under the name of Super Typhon Ragasa, the most powerful tropical cyclone of the year, paid towards the earth.
The authorities urged residents to stay at home, where people have stuck windows to protect themselves from strong winds. The supermarket shelves have emptied in certain regions while the panicked residents were full of supplies.
Puncling winds up to 220 km per hour, or 137 miles per hour, Ragasa is expected to switch about 100 km south of Hong Kong on Wednesday, the Hong Kong observatory reported just before 1 a.m.
Residents should prepare for “strong showers and thunderstorms and thunderstorms” and “waves of overtaking on shore”, in particular on the Oriental and South coasts, said the observatory.
A journalist for Agency France-Press saw waves almost five meters high in the seaside promenade of the residential district of Heng fa Chuen of the city around Nightfall.
The storm should touch the land from noon to the end of Wednesday along the coast of Guangdong, where the authorities evacuated more than 770,000 people, according to the CCTV state diffuser.
Ragasa tore the North of the Philippines on Monday on Monday, where thousands of people looked for shelter in schools and evacuation centers. In Taiwan, officials declared that 30 people were missing in the eastern county of Hualien, where a barrier lake in the mountains broke out while Ragasa stormed.
