By Zheng Caixiong in Guangzhou and Huang Yiming in Haikou | China Daily | Updated: 2012-07-24 08:06

Typhoon Vicente was barreling toward Guangdong and Hainan provinces and part of the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region on Monday night and early Tuesday morning, according to meteorological authorities.

Because of the typhoon, ferry service across Qiongzhou Strait has been suspended since 6 pm on Sunday, leaving many passengers and vehicles stranded in Haikou, Hainan province, and the Leizhou Peninsula in western Guangdong.

Train service between Beijing and Sanya in Hainan, as well as between Haikou and Shanghai, Changsha, Xi'an and Chengdu, has been rescheduled due to the suspension of rail ferry service between Guangdong and Hainan.
