Typhoon "Compass" is about to land in Hainan, and surrounding seaports will suspend operations

Now that we have entered autumn, typhoons continue to hit coastal areas, especially in Hainan, China. Recently, this year's No. 17 typhoon "Lion Rock" made landfall in Hainan not long ago and has just been discontinued, and then this year's No. 18 typhoon "Compa" appeared.

On the night of October 11, this year's 18th typhoon "Yuan Kou" strengthened from a tropical storm to a severe tropical storm. At 5 a.m. this morning , the center of "Yuan Kou" was located on the northeastern part of the South China Sea, about 960 kilometers east of Wanning, Hainan, with a maximum wind force of 10 near the center.

It is expected that "Yuan Kou" will make landfall in the coastal area from Wenchang to Sanya, Hainan Province, in the afternoon or evening of October 13. Under the combined influence of Typhoon "Yuan Kou" and cold air, the northern waters of the South China Sea will see turbulent waves and rough seas.

By 8 a.m. tomorrow , there will be heavy to torrential rain in central and eastern Zhejiang, northeastern Fujian, eastern and southern Guangdong, central and eastern Hainan Island, and most of Taiwan Island. There will be strong winds of 6 to 8 levels and gusts of 9 to 10 levels along the coast.

The strong winds and heavy rains brought by the typhoon weather are bound to affect the normal operations of surrounding seaports. Yantian Port also issued the YICT typhoon prevention notice yesterday .

The notice stated that due to the impact of this year's 18th typhoon "Combi" , the Shenzhen Meteorological Observatory had issued a typhoon blue warning signal at 18:30 on October 11. YICT will stop all box delivery services at 00:01 on October 12.

Typhoons are an important factor threatening the import and export of goods at seaports. The editor hereby reminds all freight forwarders and sellers to always pay attention to the path trend and weather changes of Typhoon "Compass" and adjust the import and export plans in time to avoid cargo losses due to typhoons and other extreme weather.
