To prevent disaster, authorities have evacuated more than 2,000 people in Kaohsiung. Residents in mountainous areas of Pingtung and Tainan have been relocated to safer areas.
A large truck broadcasts messages through mountainous villages, urging residents to evacuate. Staff from the Taiwu Township Office in Pingtung are going door to door telling residents to take shelter at the activity center.

At Sandimen Township, personnel are also out on the street to find residents who have not yet evacuated. The severe weather should not be underestimated.
Over in Tainan, local officials, accompanied by the military and police, evacuate residents in potential landslide areas. A total of 372 people from eight districts have been ordered to relocate, and 10 individuals have been provided shelter.
As for the vast mountainous areas of Kaohsiung, including Taoyuan, Namasia, Maolin, Liouguei, Jiasian, and Shanlin, the city government is taking no chances, despite the rain not being too heavy in the morning.
