The Story
Typhoon Dolphin churned deeper inland to the central Chinese province of Hubei on Tuesday, flooding streets and halting construction projects. The storm's reach extended to Beijing, where four districts activated the highest level of emergency flood responses. Shanghai's two airports cancelled 943 flights, reducing capacity by nearly 40%, as streets in commercial centers and suburban districts remained waterlogged. China Eastern Airlines is working to resume flights to Shanghai and other destinations.
