China evacuates 340,000 people as Typhoon Noul approaches

As Typhoon Noul approaches southern China, authorities have evacuated over 340,000 people and suspended work, rail services, and classes in multiple cities across Guangdong province. The typhoon is expected to make landfall between Shenzhen and Haifeng in Guangdong with maximum sustained winds of 151–173 km/h. Flight cancellations and delays have been announced at Hong Kong International Airport, with Cathay Pacific suspending all flights on Sunday. Hong Kong issued a third-highest typhoon warning, opening temporary shelters for residents. The typhoon is predicted to bring heavy rainfall and pose a significant disaster risk due to its intensity and trajectory through complex terrain. This follows previous extreme weather events in the region, including Typhoon Maysak, which caused flooding and fatalities earlier in the month.
