    Southern Taiwan told to prepare as Typhoon Bavi approaches

    Bavi is forecast to pass near northeastern Taiwan before moving into waters north of the island. However, its large circulation was expected to bring wind and rain well beyond the storm’s projected path. CWA Forecast Center Director Lin Po-tung (林伯東) said rain would intensify in mountain areas as the storm approached.

    Southern mountain districts could experience localized heavy rain, while stronger winds were expected in exposed coastal areas, including Tainan and the Hengchun Peninsula (恆春半島).
