Storm Travel Chaos as Typhoon Saudel Makes Double Landfall in China Typhoons are a familiar phenomenon in China, but Typhoon Saudel's simultaneous landfalls in Zhejiang province have raised concerns about the country's weather forecasting capabilities.
The National Meteorological Centre issued its highest level of alert, a red warning, on Thursday evening, prompting widespread disruptions to air travel and maritime services.
Saudel's winds reached speeds of up to 126km/h near its center, prompting questions about the accuracy of China's weather forecasting models.
