At least four people died and thousands were evacuated after Yagi, one of the strongest storms to hit northern Vietnam, brought powerful winds and torrential rains.

Yagi, one of 2024’s strongest storms, hit the southern Chinese island of Hainan on Friday. It is forecast to make landfall in Vietnam on Saturday.

Some vegetables cost more than they have in five years. Top Chinese officials have made a point of showing that they’re doing something about it.

This series of floods didn’t force us to leave. But the next ones might.

Hundreds of people were forced to leave their homes in a mountainous part of Sichuan Province. An expressway bridge collapsed amid heavy rains.

The storm has already left a trail of destruction in Taiwan and the Philippines, where it killed at least 15 people.

It was the second such rain-related disaster in less than three months, as extreme weather challenges the country’s extensive network of newly built expressways.

The city of Meizhou reported a “once-in-a-century” flood, with at least 38 people dying in one county alone.
