After moving over the warm seas in the east of the Philippines and following a similar path to Typhoon Rammasun, Typhoon  Yagi made landfall in China as a Category Four typhoon. The storm brought winds strong enough to overturn vehicles, uproot trees, and severely damage roads, bridges, and buildings.

At least 13 people were killed in the northern Philippines earlier this week. According to international media reports, Yagi hit the city of Wenchang on Hainan island. The cyclonic storm changed weather patterns in Hong Kong, Macau, Hainan, and Guangdong, due to which government authorities declared a holiday for schools, colleges and other public transport, including International Airports in Vietnam. Hanoi's Noi Bai International Airpot is also slated to close on Saturday as the storm approaches.

Schools and the stock market were ordered closer in Hong Kong state as precautionary measures. The Hong Kong Airport Authority reported that operations had largely returned to normal after 50 flights were cancelled on Thursday. The city of over 7 million people lowered its typhoon warning by a notch after midday, anticipating that winds would weaken as Yagi moved away, allowing businesses to reopen.
