Coastal areas in south China's Hainan Province on Saturday afternoon issued a red alert, the highest alert level, for typhoon Trami.
Trami is expected to circle over the waters from the southern coast of Hainan Island to the Xisha Islands on Sunday night, before moving eastward, gradually losing its intensity, according to the Hainan Meteorological Service.
From Saturday to Tuesday, Trami will bring strong winds and heavy rains to the sea areas near Hainan.
"Based on the current monitoring, Trami is expected to move westward at a speed of 10 to 15 kilometers per hour, gradually increasing intensity. As it approaches Hainan Island and the Xisha Islands, its strongest intensity may reach typhoon level. Starting Sunday, it will circle over the sea areas from the southern coast of Hainan Island to the Xisha Islands, and then its intensity will begin to weaken," said Wu Zhiyan, chief forecaster from the Hainan Meteorological Service.
The service maintained its Level-IV warning for typhoon on Saturday morning. Due to Trami, some sea areas around Hainan are expected to experience strong winds, and the Xisha and Zhongsha Islands will face intense winds and rainfall from Saturday to Tuesday.
On Saturday afternoon, the Sansha Municipal Meteorological Bureau upgraded the alert for the typhoon from orange to red in parts of Xisha Islands. A red warning for heavy rain was issued in the Yongle Islands of Xisha.
The Hainan Meteorological Service forecasts that Typhoon Trami will bring persistent strong winds and heavy rains to the Xisha and Zhongsha Islands, as well as sustained strong winds in the central South China Sea.
Trami also caused flooding in Yongxing Island on Saturday morning, drenching the streets.
China has a four-tier, color-coded weather warning system, with red representing the most severe warning, followed by orange, yellow and blue.

Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi said on Monday that Iran has obtained extensive documents and evidence linking the recent unrest across the country to the U.S. and Israel, noting that Mossad agents attempted to direct such "terrorist acts."
Araghchi said at a press conference in Tehran that since Dec 28, 2025, Iran had seen peaceful demonstrations organized by industry associations and economic professional. In the following days, more participants joined, and the situation gradually escalated from peaceful rallies into violent clashes.
Beginning on Jan 8, terrorists and armed groups carrying weapons entered protest sites and opened fire on police and civilians, with the aim of steering demonstrations toward violence, bloodshed and chaos, he said.
"Israeli media reports are rife with claims that Israel has designed and conducted operations in Iran. Mr. [Mike] Pompeo, who was Trump's CIA director, said on his X that 'Happy New Year to every Iranian in the streets. Also to every Mossad agent walking beside them.' This clearly shows that Mossad agents attempted to direct such terrorist acts," the minister said. Addressing military threats from the U.S. and Israel, Araghchi said Iran does not seek war but is fully prepared to face up to war. He added that Iran is ready for serious and pragmatic negotiations with the U.S., but the talks must be based on fairness, equality and mutual respect, rather than unilateral pressure or directives from Washington.
On the same day, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei condemned the U.S. and Israel at a regular press briefing in Tehran. He said the two countries have made "extensive interventionist remarks" regarding Iran's situation, saying such statements are intended to foment chaos, violence and instability.
The spokesman said Iran is closely monitoring the development of the situation and remains fully prepared, warning that Iran's armed forces will respond to any act of aggression by its enemies.
