Apologies: Missed last night's 10pm report.

Things got a little crazy last night as the storm was hitting Fuzhou pretty hard and the Superstorms teams were out on the streets.

Today: Sunday Morning 10:30 Beijing Standard Time (BST)

Xiamen - Nothing to report. Xiamen experienced very little of last night's storm.

Fuzhou - Clean up details are out and about today cleaning up broken trees, repairing power cable poles, damaged houses, and satelite areas that suffered from flooding.

Some places in the outskirts of Fuzhou city still have minor flooding this morning. Government agencies will be attending to these today.

The Fuzhou Superstorms team will stand down from duty now as all rescue efforts have been performed.

Last night the team was out and about in SUV's helping heavily flooded areas.

>>See photo uploaded to my gallery from last nights activities. SUV in Morakot.

Now the team has been sent home to rest.

Another storm passed, and more to come.
Thats all from Superstorms re: Morakot.
