Storyline: China's coastal Guangdong and Fujian provinces have activated emergency response as Typhoon Mitag, the 17th typhoon of 2025, is forecast to make landfall along Guangdong's coast between Huilai and Taishan from Friday afternoon to evening. Typhoon Mitag is expected to bring strong winds and heavy rainfall to most parts of Guangdong, according to meteorological forecasts. Due to its impact, torrential rainstorms are expected to affect parts of Guangdong and east China's Fujian Province from Friday to Sunday, the National Meteorological Center said. Guangdong Province raised its emergency response for wind prevention from level IV to level III at 10:00 on Friday.
