Typhoon Kompasu’s Impact

Typhoon Kompasu made landfall along the coast of Xiuyu District, Putian City, Fujian Province, at approximately 19:50 on July 25. The storm traversed Fujian before moving into Jiangxi and Hubei provinces, gradually weakening in intensity. By 08:00 on July 28, the typhoon had ceased to be tracked, though its residual effects continued to influence the Yangtze River, Songliao Basin, and other regions until July 31.

The heavy rainfall induced by Typhoon Kompasu caused significant flooding from July 25 to 31. Major rivers, including the Yangtze, Han, and Jilin sections of the Songhua River, experienced four major flood events, with 282 rivers exceeding warning levels, 78 rivers surpassing guaranteed levels, and eight rivers experiencing record-breaking floods.
