Updated: 2007-08-06 08:36 BEIJING -- A tropical storm
will bring heavy rains to most parts of South China's Hainan Province on Sunday
night and Monday, with gales hitting the central and southern parts, said the
Central Meteorological Station (CMS) on Sunday.
Hainan Province has earlier ordered inspections of reservoirs to brace for
the storm and the flood control authorities in the province were told to keep
vigilant.
Another tropical storm, called Pabuk, was formed on the Pacific Ocean east of
the Philippines on Sunday afternoon. It will not affect the country's coastal
waters in the coming 24 hours, said the CMS.
