Typhoon Lekima


This Typhoon wrecked almost all of the Zhejiang community. Over 1 million people had to evacuate. It made landfall in the early morning of Saturday in Wenling, between Taiwan and Shanghai. About 5 million people have been affected and around 250,000 residents have been evacuated in Shanghai. It affected two different communities. At the moment, there are 49 confirmed deaths, including 16 others that are missing in China.It will most likely take a very long time to recover from this. Many families have been left with nothing. Buildings have collapsed and will take quite a while to rebuild and get it back up. Nobody can work at the moment so that will affect many people, especially people that are working paycheck to paycheck. If the community were to help, things would be back faster than it would with only a few. It would still take long, but more people is better than a little bit of people.
