Typhoon Dolphin struck China's eastern coast on Sunday evening, leading to the cancellation of over 1,300 flights at Shanghai's two airports. The storm had already displaced more than 300,000 people ahead of its arrival. The typhoon brought heavy rains to northern Taiwan the day before, intensifying the monsoon rains in the Philippines.
In Baguio, a landslide claimed five lives and left seven missing after days of intense rainfall. Dolphin made landfall in Taizhou, Zhejiang province, and northern parts of Fujian province, bringing winds of 151 kph (93 mph) and massive waves to the coastline. The storm has raised concerns of severe flooding in Zhejiang and warns of landslide risks due to heavy rains.
