Parts of China are preparing for a fresh tropical storm, just days after the country’s eastern seaboard, including Shanghai, was hit by the strongest typhoon it had seen in decades.

Officials in China moved some 414,000 people out of the way in Shanghai before the strongest storm in decades flooded roads and cancelled flights.

Typhoon Bebinca left a trail of destruction in Shanghai, China, battering the city for six hours yesterday. The storm struck the city with heavy rains and intense winds on September 16. Bebinca has caused flight cancellations in Shanghai and suspended passenger ferry services.
