TAIPEI, Sept. 12 (Xinhua) -- Taiwan's weather bureau Tuesday issued a sea warning as Typhoon Talim approached the island.
Talim, this year's 18th typhoon, was located about 810 kilometers southeast of Taipei, moving northwest toward Taiwan at a speed of up to 21 kilometers per hour, according to latest data of the bureau.
The storm will pose an increasing threat to Taiwan's northern and eastern waters as it increases in intensity, the bureau said.
It also cautioned people in Taiwan to remain vigilant as heavy rain is likely in northern and eastern areas from Wednesday afternoon.
