SOUTHERN China is bracing itself for Typhoon Megi, as possibly the strongest storm to hit China this year inches toward Guangdong Province.
Megi is located 850 kilometers east of Zhuhai City in Guangdong, according to the latest report from the Guangdong Meteorological Administration, and is heading west northwest at a speed of 15 kilometers per hour.
Although it is too early to tell where and when Megi will make landfall, authorities warned that central and western parts of Guangdong are most vulnerable.
Megi is expected to bring torrential rains to Guangdong over the next few days.
The Ministry of Civil Affairs and the State Disaster Relief Commission have issued urgent notices to civil affairs departments in regions along the southern coast, ordering them to prepare for relief operations.
