HONG KONG, Sept 8 — Record rainfall in Hong Kong caused widespread flooding in the early hours of Friday, disrupting road and rail traffic just days after the city dodged major damage from a super typhoon.
“Heavy rain will bring flash floods,” the Observatory warned. “Residents living in close proximity to rivers should stay alert to weather conditions and should consider evacuation” if their homes are flooded, it added.Earlier in the week, Typhoon Haikui left a trail of destruction in Taiwan before crossing the strait and making landfall in China’s Fujian province on Tuesday.
Footage circulated on social media showed an MTR train not stopping at Wong Tai Sin station, which had floodwater on its platform.Heavy rain was also reported in the neighbouring Chinese tech hub of Shenzhen.
