HANGZHOU, Aug. 9 (Xinhua) -- Heavy rainstorms brought
by Typhoon Saomai will hit the coastal and southern parts of east China's
Zhejiang Province, the provincial meteorological observatory has forecast.
Heavy rains will hit Wenzhou, Taizhou, Ningbo and the
eastern part of Lishui in Zhejiang from Wednesday night till Friday, with winds
gusting 70 to 120 km per hour, said the observatory.
The center of Saomai, the name of the planet Venus in
Vietnamese, was located at sea 1,000 km east-southeast of Wenzhou,with wind
speeds of up to 144 km per hour at 5:00 a.m. Wednesday.
The typhoon is still gathering strength and its
center is moving northwest at a speed of 25 to 30 km per hour, said the
observatory.
The observatory warned of possible landslides and
mud-rock flows in the mountainous areas of the province and advised all vessels
to return immediately to harbor.
Typhoon Saomai, the eighth to hit China this year, is
expected to make landfall Thursday afternoon or night between central Zhejiang
and the northern coastal area of neighboring Fujian Province.
Another tropical storm, Bopha, 1,000 km behind
Saomai, is moving westward toward China at a speed of 20 km per hour, according
to the local meteorological observatory of Fujian. Enditem
