Extreme weather causes congestion in major ports

Extreme weather, especially typhoons and hurricanes in North Asia and the United States, has led to increased congestion at major ports. Linerlytica recently released a report noting that the number of ships queuing increased in the week ending September 10.

North Asia, in particular, was hit by heavy rains during the typhoon season, with super typhoons Saola, Khanun and Sea Anemone hitting China, Japan and South Korea.

Separately, Linerlytica estimates about 400,000 TEUs of ships are waiting in lines at regional ports in North Asia and North America that were hit by Hurricane Idalia in Florida. In North America, where snow covers the entire East Coast, waiting for up to four days, Savannah, Norfolk, Baltimore and Charleston are currently the hardest hit. 

极端天气导致主要港口拥堵

       极端天气，特别是北亚和美国的台风和飓风，导致主要港口的拥堵加剧。Linerlytica近日发布报告指出，在截止9月10日的一周内，船舶排队人数有所增加。

       特别是北亚，在台风季节遭受了暴雨的袭击，超级台风“Saola”、Khanun和“海葵”袭击了中国、日本和韩国。

       另外，Linerlytica预计，在佛罗里达州遭受飓风“伊达利亚”袭击的北亚和北美各地区港口，约有40万标准箱的船只在排队等候。在北美，整个东海岸都有积雪，等待时间长达四天，萨凡纳、诺福克、巴尔的摩和查尔斯顿目前受灾最严重。
