Shanghai is grappling with the aftermath of Typhoon Bebinca, the strongest storm to hit the city since 1949, which made landfall with winds of 151 km/h. The typhoon has caused significant disruptions, including the evacuation of over 414,000 residents, widespread power outages affecting 30,000 households, and the downing of more than 1,800 trees. Emergency services, comprising over 60,000 responders, are actively engaged in clearing debris and restoring utilities as the city faces severe flooding and structural damages. The storm's impact has led to the cancellation of more than 1,400 flights and the suspension of ferry and train services, complicating travel during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Authorities anticipate additional rainfall of up to 30 cm in the coming days, as recovery efforts continue. This event underscores the challenges urban centers like Shanghai face amid increasingly severe climate events.
