Typhoon Chaba, the third typhoon of 2022 and first to affect Hong Kong, made landfall in China’s southern province of Guangdong province on July 2, 2022. The storm caused severe flooding and disrupted civil aviation, railways, shipping in the area where it came ashore. The typhoon also damaged power grids in the cities of Zhanjiang and Maoming, leaving more than 230,000 households without electricity. Rescue workers have been deployed to multiple cities, but officials said emergency repairs including restoration of power may have to wait until weather conditions improve on July 4.
