Early Wednesday morning, Typhoon Co-May, the 8th storm of the season, made a dramatic entrance on Zhujiajian Island in Zhoushan City, east China's Zhejiang Province. With wind speeds reaching 23 m/s and a central pressure of 975 hPa, the typhoon showed its might right from the start ⚡.
According to China’s National Meteorological Center, Co-May is now barreling northwest at 10–15 km/h and is expected to strengthen a bit before hitting again between Ningbo in Zhejiang and Qidong in Jiangsu later today. In that second encounter, wind speeds could surge to between 23–28 m/s, marking a potent tropical storm vibe 🌪️.
Residents in the affected areas are advised to stay alert and updated as the storm gradually weakens after its second landfall. Nature always reminds us to keep our guard up – stay safe and take care!
