Typhoon Kong-rey: Tropical storm batters Shanghai after killing 2 in Taiwan
After making landfall in Taiwan on Thursday and killing two, Typhoon Kong-rey swept through Shanghai and several other eastern regions in China on Friday, offering locals torrential rain and intense gale winds. As authorities in Shanghai’s financial hub issued weather alerts, all ferry services in the city were halted, with suspensions to many of the city’s high-speed train services. “I don’t seem to recall experiencing [a typhoon in November],” a local motorcycle rider said while describing her commute to reporters. “There were very few people on the road in the morning,” she added. Regarding specific downtown areas, the commuter said with a laugh, “You have to walk backwards.” For more info, please go to https://globalnews.ca
