Many streets in the city’s former French Concession turned a vivid green, carpeted with the felled boughs and leaves of the quarter’s famous plane trees. “The wind was really strong...You couldn’t see the leaves on the trees, there was rain everywhere,” the 84-year-old said. “I feel quite nervous today, I’m constantly checking what the situation is out the window,” Mr Xiong told AFP.
