Heavy rain has flooded roads and triggered evacuations across Taiwan's Taitung County, disrupting travel and hitting local businesses, though no serious injuries have been reported.

• Rain totals hit 300mm in the worst-hit spots, with 34 rivers under red alert and four large landslide warnings.
• Sixty residents of Jinlun village were moved to a community center, where food supplies are holding up.
• Roads filled with mud and rocks, a car was hit by falling rock, and a stalled vehicle trapped a 92-year-old man until police and firefighters pulled him out.
• Tourists were stranded after overnight train cancellations on the southern line, and shops complained that the sudden closure order left prepared food to spoil.

Outlook: Cleanup crews will move in once the rain eases, but flood and landslide risk stays high while the heavy rain continues.
