All flights, slow trains, and shutters businesses in China's commercial hub Shanghai have been canceled and authorities banned outdoor activities ahead of Typhoon In-Fa’s landfall.

In-Fa Typhoon landed in the district of the city of Zhoushan, a major port in the eastern province of Zhejiang, at 12:30 pm (04:30 GMT) on Sunday,  the China Meteorological Administration said.

“We will make every effort to ensure the safety of people’s lives and property, and do everything to minimize disaster losses, and strive to achieve the goal of no deaths and few injuries and economic losses,” said Yuan Jiajun, Zhejiang province Communist Party secretary, during an inspection of preparations on Saturday.

 “The problem with this typhoon is not only that it is wreaking economic havoc in some key parts in China but also that it comes at a very delicate time,” Melinda Liu for the News Week Said.

“It, first of all, comes just a few days after massive flooding in central China which has disrupted lives of a million people and killed dozens. Not just killed people but also created images that went viral on social media, some very graphic pictures of people who apparently drowned in a subway system,” she added.

The Meteorological Administration earlier said the typhoon was moving at a speed of 15 km per hour (9 miles per hour).

In-fa’s wind speeds were up to 38 meters per second, the Meteorological Administration said. That is equal to about 137 kph (85 mph), according to Reuters calculations.
