Storyline: Multiple Chinese coastal provinces have activated emergency measures as Typhoon Fung-wong entered the South China Sea and continued moving northwest. Fung-wong -- the 26th named storm of the 2025 Pacific typhoon season -- is expected to make landfall on the southwestern coast of Taiwan between Wednesday afternoon and Wednesday evening, with winds reaching force 10 to force 12. In response, east China's Fujian Province has launched a Level-II emergency response on Tuesday as typhoon is expected to bring moderate rains to coastal areas from Tuesday to Wednesday, with some regions experiencing heavy rains or storms. Local authorities and government departments have been instructed to monitor the typhoon situation closely, and to implement emergency measures as needed. As of 11:00 Tuesday, a total of 69 passenger ferry routes and 180 vessels along the Fujian coast have suspended operations. On Monday in the city of Fuding, staff from the local marine and fisheries station were seen conducting patrols by speedboat, as dozens of fishing boats lay moored in orderly rows and fishermen busied themselves reinforcing mooring ropes and transferring supplies. "We received the notice two days ago and have already reinforced our fish rafts. Today we came down to check everything again to make sure all the reinforcement work is completed. All personnel will be evacuated by 16:00 on Wednesday," said a local fisherman. So far, all 2,904 operating fishing vessels in Fujian's sea areas have returned to port, and more than 55,000 people working at sea have been evacuated. In addition, due to the impact of the typhoon, the Chinese railroad authorities have adjusted train schedules. On Tuesday, some trains on several high-speed railway lines in the coastal parts of the country were suspended. Shotlist: Fujian Province, east China - Nov 10, 2025: 1.
