Flights disrupted as Typhoon Chanthu approaches Taiwan
Taipei, Sept. 11 (CNA) Dozens of domestic and international flights have been postponed or cancelled as Typhoon Chanthu continued to move closer and is expected to bring heavy rain and strong winds this weekend.
On Saturday, 36 domestic flights have been cancelled with two delayed, while two international and cross-Taiwan Strait flights have also been cancelled, according to the Civil Aeronautics Administration.

I think that it is more reasonable to use "continues" rather than "continued" since the reporter used the present tense just before (and the typhoon still continues to move).
What do you think?
