Super Typhoon Ragasa has inflicted significant damage in Hong Kong, particularly impacting a restaurant whose front was destroyed by a devastating storm surge. The powerful typhoon, packing winds nearing 165 mph (approximately 265 km/h), made landfall in Guangdong Province, China, after a destructive passage through Taiwan where it tragically caused at least 17 fatalities. The immense force of the storm surge breached the restaurant's defenses, leading to extensive structural damage and highlighting the vulnerability of coastal establishments to extreme weather events.
