Good evening and welcome to the ten o'clock news. On tonight's news:
About five hundred homes were washed away by floods after Wayne struck the west coast of Taiwan yesterday bringing driving rain and winds of up to eighty-four miles per hour. The typhoon flooded wide areas of Taiwan and crippled communications and power supplies. All domestic flights were cancelled yesterday and Taipei's international airport was closed for about five hours. Government radio reported that two passenger ferries had been sunk but gave no details of casualties. The work of emergency relief teams is being hampered by blocked roads and the loss of power and telephone communications in central regions. It will be some time before we hear the final casualty figures. There will be another report from our correspondent in Taipei in the midnight news.
