Typhoon: Chan-hom grounds domestic flights in South Korea

Domestic flights were cancelled in South Korea Sunday as Typhoon Chan-hom brought strong winds and heavy rainfall to south-western provinces, after wreaking substantial damage in China.
The storm grounded more than 150 domestic flights nation-wide, airport authorities said. International flights were not affected. A strong wind and rainstorm alert has been issued along South Korea's southern and western coastal areas, which received up to 291 millimetres (11.4 inches) of rain.
