Silent harbour waits for arrival of tropical storms in E China

Crimson clouds at sunset are seen over a harbour of Zhoushan City, east China's Zhejiang Province, Aug. 31, 2010. The tropical storm Lionrock, the sixth of this season, was moving northeastward slowly. It will probably land on south China's Guangdong Province or Fujian Province on Wednesday evening or Thursday morning, bringing gusty winds and heavy rainfall to the regions, according to local meteorological stations. The seventh tropical storm Kompasu and the eighth tropical storm Namtheun were also moving near the southeast coastline of China. The three tropical storms might interact with one another and cause unpredictable outcome. (Xinhua/Xu Yu)
