Since last night (18th), Ulsan has been experiencing large and small damage such as power outages as it rains with strong winds exceeding 25 m/s.

I'll connect you with reporters.



UBC reporter Bae Yoon-ju, tell us about the typhoon situation in Ulsan.

Yes, where I am now is off the coast of Seuldo, Dong-gu.



It has been raining continuously in Ulsan since last night, and the wind has been blowing strongly for a while now, but if you look behind me now, you can see that the waves are rising high.



Ulsan recorded 78 mm of accumulated precipitation as of 8 am, with more than 92 mm of rain falling at the Buk-gu Pavilion.



The wind was also strong, so strong winds of over 27 m/s were recorded at Lee Deok-seo on the coast and at Ulsan Airport in the city center.



There were also reports of power outages due to the non-stop strong winds.



At around 2:17 am today, a power outage occurred in about 50 households in Myeongchon-dong, Buk-gu, and about 960 households in Yaeum-dong and Daehyeon-dong, Nam-gu, at around 10 pm earlier.



In addition, more than 800 119 reports were received, including falling traffic lights, broken street trees, and shaking apartment railings.



Currently, the sky and railroads in Ulsan are also blocked.



Mugunghwa on the Donghae Line, which connects Ulsan Taehwagwang Station and Dongdaegu, Pohang, has been suspended from 10 am to 2 pm, and 4 flights between Ulsan and Gimpo and Jeju are also canceled until the morning.



Initially, it was decided to suspend the school operation at the discretion of the principal, but the Ulsan Office of Education held an emergency meeting this morning and changed the policy to converting the entire school to distance learning.



This typhoon is on a similar path to Typhoon Songda, which flooded Ulsan with 250mm of rain in 2004.



Even if the typhoon moves away from Ulsan, it may rain a lot until the afternoon, so you need to be careful not to damage it.
