Southern part forecast to be hit hard
Typhoon Hinnamnor is forecast to make landfall near the southern city of Busan early next week, the state weather agency said Saturday.
The powerful typhoon is forecast to land 70 kilometers southwest of the port city at 9 a.m. next Tuesday, according to the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA).
The typhoon, the 11th this year, is expected to hit the country as a "strong" typhoon, the third strongest in a four-tier system, with an atmospheric pressure of 950 hectopascals at its center and a maximum wind speed of 43 meters per second, the KMA said.
To prepare against possible damage from the typhoon, President Yoon Suk-yeol ordered Interior Minister Lee Sang-min to come up with the highest response measures, according to the presidential office.
The interior ministry said it began operations of the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters in the morning and raised its typhoon alert level by one notch to "yellow" from "blue."
