Southern China is facing severe flooding threats after Typhoon Noul made landfall in Guangdong Province on Sunday, bringing gale-force winds and heavy rainfall across the region.
Chinese authorities issued their highest flash flood warning and relocated more than 700,000 residents from vulnerable communities in Guangdong as the country's strongest typhoon of the year moved inland.
The storm, the 12th tropical cyclone of 2026 and China's third this month, came ashore in Huidong County at about 3:50 a.m. local time. It is expected to continue moving through Jiangxi and Hunan provinces, bringing widespread heavy rain through Tuesday.
The National Meteorological Centre warned that parts of Fujian Province could experience exceptionally heavy downpours, while local governments were urged to closely monitor flood-prone areas, including mountainous regions, riverbanks, valleys, bridges, and construction sites.
Although Typhoon Noul has weakened since making landfall, strong winds continued to affect Hong Kong. The Hong Kong Observatory lowered the city's typhoon warning signal from No. 8 to No. 3 as weather conditions gradually improved.
Hong Kong International Airport also announced that flight operations would gradually resume on Sunday afternoon after widespread cancellations and disruptions lasting more than 12 hours.
Emergency services remain on high alert as authorities monitor the risk of flooding and landslides across southern China.
