A typhoon with wind gusts of 200 km per hour has hit land in southeastern China.

It's hit the coast in a region about 300 km south of Shanghai.

Schools have closed, flights and trains have been suspended and thousands of ships have returned to port.

The storm is thought to be the most powerful to hit the Zhejiang province in more than 60 years.
