Yagi registers as the world’s second-most powerful tropical cyclone in 2024 so far, more than doubling its strength since devastating northern Philippines earlier this week
Storm clouds gather over buildings in Hong Kong on Sept. 5, 2024, as super typhoon Yagi tracked across the South China Sea toward the southern China coast.Southern Chinese provinces and cities braced for the arrival of super typhoon Yagi, shutting schools and postponing flights ahead of its expected landfall along Hainan’s subtropical coast in what could be the most powerful storm to hit China in years.
Typhoons are becoming stronger, fuelled by warmer oceans, amid climate change, scientists say. Last week, Typhoon Shanshan slammed into southwestern Japan, the strongest storm to hit the country in decades. Trains and boats suspended operations in Hainan on Thursday morning, while many schools across southern China, including in the financial hub of Hong Kong and gambling hub Macau were shut.
