The remnants of former Super Typhoon “Kong-rey” are wreaking havoc across East Asia, particularly in China and Japan. After making landfall in Taiwan, where it left a tragic toll of three fatalities and over 500 injuries, Kong-rey has since transformed into an extratropical low, continuing its destructive path. As it moves away from Taiwan, it has now begun to heavily impact coastal regions of China and poses significant risks of landslides and flooding in Japan.
Kong-rey intensified to a Category 4-equivalent super typhoon on October 30, with peak sustained winds reaching 250 km/h (155 mph) before making landfall. At the time of impact in Taitung County, the storm’s central pressure had dropped to approximately 925 hPa, with maximum sustained winds near 184 km/h (114 mph) and gusts hitting 230 km/h (145 mph), according to the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC).
