Shanghai Hit by Storm Co-May and Earthquake Alerts

News summary

Tropical Storm Co-May struck Zhoushan in Zhejiang province before making landfall in Shanghai's Fengxian District, prompting the evacuation of over 280,000 residents and the cancellation of hundreds of flights and ferry services. Wind speeds reached up to 23 meters per second, causing authorities to impose speed limits on roads and railways, close parks and the zoo, and suspend some attractions at Legoland, while Disneyland remained open with safety precautions. Emergency measures included relocating residents, deploying thousands of rescue personnel, and evacuating ships to safer waters. Meanwhile, an 8.8-magnitude earthquake off Russia's Far East triggered tsunami warnings along China's east coast, which were later lifted for Shanghai and Zhoushan. Despite weaker winds than major typhoons, local officials maintained high alert for landslides, urban flooding, and coastal surges. The combined storm and earthquake response aimed to safeguard public safety amid rare simultaneous emergencies.
