Super Typhoon Yagi, packing winds of up to 245 km/h, is the strongest storm to hit southern China in a decade, leaving extensive damages in the Philippines.
Yagi's rapid intensification in strength, more than doubling since it struck the Philippines, underscores the increasing unpredictability and intensity of tropical cyclones across the globe.
Authorities in southern China and Vietnam are proactively suspending transport services and closing schools ahead of Yagi's expected landfall, showcasing the severity of emergency preparedness.
Scientists warn that climate change is contributing to the strength and less predictability of storms like Yagi, further exacerbated by warmer ocean temperatures.
