In an unexpected turn of events, Super Typhoon Dusuari has been upgraded to a dangerous level by the Central Meteorological Observatory (CMA). The path of the typhoon has also been adjusted, and it is now expected to cause widespread wind and rain impacts on the East China region. Although Shanghai may not be directly affected by the landing, the typhoon will move northwards after making landfall, posing a potential threat to surrounding areas.

Reactions from Weibo netizens have varied, with some expressing concern over the expected damage and others focusing on personal stock opportunities in the light market. However, as Typhoon Dusuari nears, it is essential for individuals to take necessary precautions to protect themselves and stay safe during the typhoon days. The emergency guide provided by the Emergency Management Department can be a valuable resource in these situations.

It is worth noting that the South China Sea will experience heavy rain from tomorrow morning until the morning of the 28th, with maximum winds near the centre reaching levels 13-15 when the typhoon lands. Fujian, eastern Guangdong, and Zhejiang coastal areas can expect significant rainfall over the next few days.

The arrival of a super typhoon is an indication that extreme weather events like heavy winds and rain are imminent. It is important to note that when a typhoon stops suddenly, it doesn't necessarily mean that the typhoon has moved away; rather, it may indicate a change in direction or intensity.

Some netizens have shared their personal experiences with previous typhoons, expressing concern over potential damage and encouraging others to prepare for the worst-case scenario. As the super typhoon heads towards the East China region, it is crucial for residents to take necessary precautions and follow guidelines provided by local authorities to ensure their safety during this turbulent time.
