now tracking the forecast path of the
typhoon let's move up north along the
east coast to the city of
kangni in kangwondo province it's
another coastal city bracing for storm
tonight
our kim do young is live at the scene by
the pier to tell us
how they're preparing for the latest
typhoon of the season
toy we understand that typhoon has not
yet arrived there but people are still
being affected by it
yes i'm at jumunjinport in the city of
kangling kangwondo province
which is at the east coast of the
peninsula there are around
230 fishing ships here at this port and
as of 6 am today dongghe coast guard has
restricted them from going out
due to typhoon masak in addition the
coast guard
also conducted a series of safety
examinations anyone who refuses to
evacuate ships
will face fines of around 1800 us
dollars
the city's mayor has also called for the
relevant departments
to be well prepared saying he will hold
them responsible
for any damage that is preventable the
port is also known for its nearby
seafood market
many vendors closed today and will do so
tomorrow as well
due to the typhoon one shop owner voice
their concern
we're very worried of course for the
building itself
what's the biggest concern is about the
electricity if there's a thunderstorm
and we have a blackout this will affect
a lot of fish
we'll need a quick response from the
electricity company
right and it seems like the city
especially at the
port area where it's particularly
vulnerable to the typhoon is bracing for
the worst
now when do we expect the city to be
slammed by this typhoon masak
it was already pouring here just a few
minutes ago and it's a bit windier at
the moment
but the actual eye of the typhoon is due
here in 12 hours
after that it's expected to pass into
north korea's ham gangbukto province
before dissipating
the forecast says that the city is
expected to have
400 millimeters of rain as a direct
result from the typhoon
this is a period when the tide is tide
is at its highest
so the amount of rain and the waves can
be a huge threat to people in coastal
areas
in addition when it does arrive here
wind speeds could reach up to 115
kilometers per hour
this could be the one of the worst the
city has ever seen
that's all all i have for you at this
hour back to you kanye
all right our kim do you live from
kangning on south cruise east coast
stay safe
