Tropical Storm Bavi, the most potent storm to impact mainland China this calendar year, made landfall in eastern China on Saturday, necessitating large-scale evacuations and causing significant transport disruptions.

熱帶風暴巴維是今年對中國大陸影響最強的風暴，週六在中國東部登陸，導致大規模撤離並造成嚴重的交通中斷。

The storm's trajectory commenced with impacts on Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands as a super typhoon, subsequently affecting Japan's southwestern islands and northern Taiwan. In Taiwan, the system caused 134 injuries and widespread power outages, though no fatalities were recorded. Upon reaching mainland China, Bavi made landfall in Zhejiang province at approximately 23:20 local time on Saturday, with sustained winds of 144 kph. The storm subsequently weakened to a severe tropical storm by Sunday morning as it progressed toward Anhui province.

該風暴的軌跡始於以超級颱風形式影響關島與北馬利亞納群島，隨後影響日本西南島嶼與台灣北部。在台灣，該系統造成 134 人受傷及大範圍停電，但未記錄到死亡病例。巴維於週六當地時間約 23:20 在浙江省登陸，持續風速為每小時 144 公里。隨後該風暴向安徽省移動，於週日早晨弱化為強熱帶風暴。

Institutional responses were characterized by extensive preventative measures. State media reports indicate the evacuation of approximately 2.8 million individuals, with over 2.2 million situated in Zhejiang. Additional evacuations occurred in Shanghai (approximately 290,000) and Fujian (over 180,000). The Chinese government implemented a Level II emergency response for rainfall and a Level III response for typhoons. To facilitate recovery, the National Development and Reform Commission allocated 100 million yuan each to Zhejiang and Guangxi for infrastructure restoration.

機構應對的特點是採取了廣泛的預防措施。官方媒體報導指出約有 280 萬人撤離，其中超過 220 萬人位於浙江。上海（約 29 萬人）與福建（超過 18 萬人）亦進行了撤離。中國政府針對降雨實施了二級應急響應，針對颱風實施了三級應急響應。為促進恢復，國家發展和改革委員會向浙江與廣西各撥款 1 億元用於基礎設施修復。

Logistical disruptions were substantial. In Shanghai, approximately 684 flights and 1,620 train trips were canceled, while Hangzhou experienced the suspension of two major rail stations and 327 flight cancellations. Nationally, over 2,800 flights were affected. Physical damage in Yueqing included the toppling of 1,300 trees and localized flooding. These events follow a period of instability in southern and central China, where previous storms resulted in 39 fatalities and the breach of a reservoir.

物流中斷情況嚴重。在上海，約 684 班航班與 1,620 班列車被取消，而杭州則有兩個主要火車站停運及 327 班航班取消。全國共有超過 2,800 班航班受影響。樂清的實體損害包括 1,300 棵樹木被吹倒及局部淹水。這些事件發生在中國南方與中部不穩定時期之後，先前風暴已導致 39 人死亡及一座水庫潰堤。

Climatological analysis suggests a correlation between these events and the emergence of the El Niño pattern. Experts, including Benjamin Horton of the City University of Hong Kong, posit that increased ocean temperatures intensify tropical systems and shift their trajectories westward. Such rapid intensification is noted to compress the window available for emergency management preparation.

氣候分析顯示，這些事件與聖嬰現象（El Niño）模式的出現相關。包括香港城市大學 Benjamin Horton 在內的專家認為，海洋溫度升高會增強熱帶系統並將其軌跡向西偏移。這種快速增強被認為壓縮了應急管理準備的時間窗口。

Bavi is forecast to move northeast into the northern Yellow Sea by Tuesday, with continued precipitation risks for several northern provinces.

預計巴維將在週二前向東北移動至黃海北部，數個北方省份將持續面臨降雨風險。
