Late on September 28, in the Vung Chua - Yen Island area, Phu Trach commune (Quang Tri province), the weather was temporarily calm after a long period of continuous winds.
However, along National Highway 1, many electric poles were broken by the wind, and the power lines were close to the ground. The power has been cut off in this area.
A nearly 200m section of road had 3 consecutive power poles that fell down.
Mr. Le Ngoc Anh - a resident living along the national highway said that when he saw the wind stop, he used a flashlight to check and discovered that the electric pole right in front of his house had broken. Fortunately, the pole did not fall onto the roof, only pulling the electric wire.
