[TaiwanNews] 颱風肆虐中南部災情嚴重，一起關心並祈禱災情好轉

本集學習內容: Rain falls on Taiwan’s Father’s Day parade Unstable weather to continue though tropical depression is moving away from Taiwan As a tropical depression moves away from Taiwan, forecasters predict rainfall will diminish on Sunday (Aug. 8), which is celebrated in Taiwan as Father’s Day. Tropical Storm Lupit was downgraded to a tropical depression before it moved across north Taiwan and caused havoc nationwide. A landslide caused the suspension of high-speed train services between Miaoli and Taichung. Meanwhile, several parts of the country reported roads, bridges, homes, and farmland damaged by flooding, with mudslides from New Taipei in the north to Pingtung in the south and even on the outlying island county of Matsu. Residents of mountainous areas in Kaohsiung compared Saturday’s flooding to the devastation wrought by Typhoon Morakot in August 2009, though that storm left more than 600 people dead. In Tainan, a freak wave swept two joggers off a seaside path, with one later pronounced dead. A total of 106 school buildings were damaged, with the damage estimated to total NT$12.28 million (US$441,000), CNA reported. The Central Weather Bureau said that while the tropical depression was moving away from Taiwan, rainfall would ease Sunday — though unstable weather would likely continue. Extremely heavy rain or torrential rain advisories were still in force for many parts of the country Saturday, with 800 millimeters of rain having fallen in Jiamu, Pingtung County, between Friday morning and 2 p.m. on Saturday. 資料來源: https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4266075 ------------------------------------------ 喜歡我的節目嗎？可以從這裡請我喝杯飲料喔！ https://open.firstory.me/join/englishcoffeeshop 歡迎留言分享和評分 <3 喜歡與你們分享所帶來的喜悅！ --Joyce Powered by Firstory Hosting
