China has raised its emergency response for Typhoon Talim, which has strengthened from tropical storm to severe tropical storm and is forecasted to make landfall in South China on Monday night.
The province of Hainan upgraded the emergency response for typhoon and warned ships operating in nearby seas to return to ports to take shelter.
Guangdong also forecasted strong wind and heavy rainfall. Local maritime authorities have strengthened traffic safety management, vessel sailing control and port facility reinforcement of Pearl River, Qiongzhou Strait, Wanshan Islands and nearby areas.
Major ports in South China had suspended container pick up and deliver services. Vessels schedule is likely to be delayed during the period.
