Businesses along the beaches in Da Nang are hurriedly packing up their furniture and belongings as Typhoon No. 5 approaches.

Da Nang’s sky turned gloomy and rainy in the afternoon of August 24. The coastal area saw fewer visitors. Local businesses have moved deck chairs and belongings closer to the shore. According to the locals, they always secure their properties ahead of any typhoon, regardless of its magnitude. Photo: Thanh Hien.

“We never know the exact path of a typhoon, so we started packing up our roof covers and tables since noon. If the water level rises and the wind gets stronger during the night, we won’t be able to handle it,” said Mr. Ho Hoanh from business services group No.11.




According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, from the night of August 24 to August 25, the sea area from Thanh Hoa to Thua Thien-Hue will experience strong winds of level 7-9, increasing to level 10-11, and even level 12-14 near the typhoon’s eye, with gusts of up to level 16. The sea will be very rough, with waves of 5-7m high, and up to 8-10m near the typhoon’s eye. The sea area from Da Nang to Gia Lai will also experience strong winds of level 6-7, with gusts of up to level 8-9. The sea will be rough, with waves of 3-5m high.

Furniture, beds, and mattresses have been gradually moved towards the shore. The roof covers will also be taken down and moved to a safer place to prevent strong winds from causing damage.

Smaller items are taken inside the stalls and locked up. Ms. Nguyen Thi Dung from business services group No.11 expressed her concern: “I heard that this typhoon will last longer and affect the provinces further north, but Da Nang might still be affected. You can never be too careful when it comes to natural disasters, so we have to secure and tie down our properties as soon as possible.”

A row of shops had their roof covers removed in the afternoon of August 24. According to observations, businesses along the beaches of Son Tra and Ngu Hanh Son districts were rushing to secure their properties and belongings.

Smaller items are taken inside the stalls and locked up. Ms. Nguyen Thi Dung from business services group No. 11 expressed her concern: “I heard that this typhoon will last long and affect the northern provinces. Although Da Nang is not directly in its path, we can never be too sure when it comes to natural disasters. That’s why we have to secure and tie down our properties as soon as possible.”
