STORYLINE:
Taiwan's Central Weather Administration lifted its sea and land typhoon warnings early Friday as Krathon was downgraded to a tropical depression.
Typhoon Krathon made landfall Thursday afternoon in Taiwan's major port city of Kaohsiung, bringing torrential rains and fierce winds to the island's south.
Trees were brought down by high winds and roads were flooded, prompting the closure of schools and businesses.
According to Taiwan’s fire department, weather-related events attributed to Krathon injured at least 490 people around the island.
Two people died, one after driving into fallen rocks on the road in the southeastern Taitung county, and the other while trimming tree branches in the city of Hualien.
Earlier in the week, Typhoon Krathon lashed northern Philippine islands, killing four people and displacing at least 5,000, officials said.
