    Hong Kong halts schools and stock market as typhoon Talim approaches

    Hong Kong halts schools and stock market as typhoon Talim approaches

    Schools and the stock market in Hong Kong came to a halt on July 17 as the city braced itself for the arrival of Typhoon Talim. With the financial hub preparing for heavy rainfall and strong winds, over 100 individuals sought shelter at temporary facilities.

    As a result of the approaching typhoon, certain government services, ferry operations, and scheduled events were suspended or postponed. Additionally, the Hong Kong Airport Authority announced the cancellation of 16 flights.

    The Hong Kong Observatory issued a No. 8 typhoon signal, the third-highest warning level in the city's weather system, at 12:40 am on July 17. This marked the first time this year that such a signal had been raised. 

    As per meteorologists, Typhoon Talim was anticipated to pass approximately 300 kilometers to the south-southwest of Hong Kong in the morning of July 17, with sustained winds reaching a maximum of 140 kilometers per hour.

    The National Meteorological Center of China predicted that the typhoon would make landfall at night on July 17 in the coastal areas of the neighboring provinces of Guangdong and Hainan. Subsequently, it was expected to enter the Gulf of Tonkin before striking Guangxi province on July 18. The center also stated that Talim is projected to weaken by Wednesday as it reaches Vietnam.

    As the storm approached, Hong Kong reported 18 cases of fallen trees, prompting authorities to advise residents to avoid coastal areas and refrain from engaging in water-related sports activities.

    Hong Kong, accustomed to the threat of typhoons, has a well-established system in place to handle such natural disasters.
