The reporter learned today from the Hainan Meteorological Department that Typhoon No. 19 of this year, “Zitan,” has weakened to a tropical depression and made landfall again at around 11:00 on the 26th along the coast of Wuchuan City in Guangdong Province. At the time of landfall, the maximum wind power near the center was level 6, and the lowest air pressure in the center was 1,000 hundred Pa. It is expected that the low pressure will continue to move in the northerly direction, rapidly weakening in intensity, and the impact on Hainan Province is coming to an end. The Hainan Meteorological Administration lifted the typhoon level 4 warning at 12:00 today. The Hainan Meteorological Department warned that during the day on the 26th, the Qiongzhou Strait and the northern part of Beibu Gulf would have gusts of magnitude 7 to 9; from the 26th to the 28th, the sea surface gusts near the Spratly Islands could reach magnitude 7 to 8. It is recommended that relevant departments do a good job in managing the safety of navigation through the strait. Passing ships only need to pay close attention to the forecast and warning information and avoid areas affected by high winds in a timely manner.
