Devastating typhoon approaches to China

After making landfall in the northern Philippines Sunday morning, meteorologists believe Typhoon Sarika is on a projected course toward southern China and Vietnam where it will dump heavy rain and damaging winds early this week, Reuters reported.

In addition, forecasters believe Typhoon Haima in the Pacific Ocean could form into a super typhoon and threaten the northern Philippines and then eastern China.

According to Weather.com, Typhoon Sarika is being pushed by a high-pressure system in the South China Sea, and the storm is expected to make landfall on Hainan Island in China by Tuesday.

On Wednesday, Sarika is then expected to impact northern Vietnam and southern mainland China, with the typhoon bringing high winds, heavy rainfall and more flooding.
