Super Typhoon Ragasa, the strongest tropical cyclone in the world this year, battered Hong Kong and southern China on Wednesday with powerful winds and torrential rain. The storm forced the evacuation of two million people, with coastal waters in Hong Kong surging more than three metres above the reference level.
Even as the typhoon wreaked havoc, one video from Macau offered an unusual sight. Shared by Shanghai Daily, it showed locals wading through flooded streets — fishing nets, bags, and even incubators in hand — to scoop up fish swept in by the storm. Some residents were seen loading their catch onto bicycles, while others posed for selfies with their unexpected dinner haul along Avenida do Almirante Lacerda and Rua da Doca Seca.
