Typhoon Bavi approaches Taiwan with 124 mph winds

Taiwan and parts of China are preparing for Typhoon Bavi, which is churning southeast of Taiwan with winds near 124 mph. The storm follows Typhoon Maysak, which recently affected areas of China.

China are bracing for what could be one of the most destructive tropical storms in years. Officials in both regions are monitoring the storm's path and intensity.

China continue to recover from the earlier storm while preparing for the new system. Taiwan is also taking precautionary measures ahead of the approaching typhoon.
