The meteorological agency of Taiwan has issued both sea and land alerts for Typhoon Gaemi, which is expected to make landfall in Yilan County between late July 24 and early July 25 morning (local time). The center of Typhoon Gaemi was located approximately 470 km southeast of Eluanbi, moving northwest with maximum sustained winds of around 144 km per hour. The storm’s radius is approaching the Bashi Channel and the sea areas southeast of Taiwan, posing a threat to New Taipei, Yilan, Hualien, and Taitung.
Typhoon Gaemi has forced the suspension of some ferry services, the cancellation of certain flights, and the closure or restricted access to several major tourist sites. Authorities are closely monitoring the storm’s progress and have urged residents to take necessary precautions to ensure their safety.
