Zengwen Reservoir no relation August 8 Flood
Taiwan
August 5, 2009:  20:30, the Central Weather Bureau of Taiwan issued a Sea Typhoon Alert for Morakot.
August 6, 2009:  Severe Tropical Storm Morakot intensified into a typhoon.
August 7, 2009:  Morakot was closing in on Taiwan. It moved very slowly and it made landfall just before midnight.
August 8, 2009:  After midnight, most of the districts in south Taiwan recorded heavy rainfall.However, Morakot also ended a month-long drought and replenished reservoirs enough to warrant an end to water rationing. Typhoon Morakot caused Zengwen Reservoir, which was originally short on water, to suddenly exceed capacity. In response to the excess water, the reservoir released over 100,000,000 liters of water, which is about 80% of the dam's total capacity. The release of water caused severe flooding along the Zengwen River; in Xiaobei Village in Madou Township, the water level reached a story high.The "Little Three Links" between Kinmen of the Republic of China and Xiamen of the People's Republic of China was suspended. Almost all reservoirs in Kinmen County were full. Winds at Force 13 on the Beaufort scale were recorded in the Matsu Islands.
