‘Unprecedented’ path: revived Typhoon Saudel eyes eastern and southern China

Heavy to torrential rain is forecast over the next three days, with authorities warning of floods, landslides and mudslides

So far, no large-scale flight cancellations have been announced. Some travellers took to social media to express concern and confusion over whether their flight plans would be affected by the storm’s revival.

The unusual development took place early Tuesday, when a tropical depression formed from the remnants of Saudel strengthened again into a typhoon over the northwestern South China Sea.
