More than 150,000 people living in the south-eastern Chinese province of Fujian have been relocated to safer areas as Typhoon Gaemi has made landfall in mainland China after wreaking havoc in Taiwan and the Philippines.
Typhoon Gaemi caused widespread flooding and landslides across Taiwan and the Philippines, killing at least 21 people.
The Philippines says it is "racing against time" to contain an oil spill after a tanker carrying 1.5 million litres of industrial fuel capsized and sank off of the country's coast.
The ship was one of two which sank in the region yesterday, with the second going down just off Taiwan's south-western coast.
China has activated its highest-tier disaster warning as the storm made its way to its shores.
Train services have been suspended in Fujian, while authorities in northern China have warned heavy rains could trigger landslides and flooding.
Meanwhile, the State Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters says there is a "high risk" of natural disasters.
China is experiencing a summer of extremely changeable weather, with heavy downpours in the east and south and scorching heatwaves in the north.
