BEIJING: Typhoon Dolphin has made landfall on China's east coast on Sunday (Aug 9), bringing torrential rain and powerful winds, as authorities brace for flooding and landslides across a broad swathe of eastern China. Typhoon Dolphin has already swept through Japan's southern Okinawa prefecture, injuring six people and cutting power to more than 50,000 buildings. Torrential rain is forecast through Monday across Zhejiang, Shanghai, northern Fujian, northeastern Jiangxi, central and southern Anhui, and much of Jiangsu. Parts of central and eastern Zhejiang could receive 250mm to 500mm of rain, according to forecasters. Hangzhou's airport in nearby Zhejiang province saw 270 inbound and outbound flights cancelled, CCTV's report said.
