What is a sandstorm?

Sandstorm is a general term for sandstorm and sandstorm, which refers to a serious sandstorm weather phenomenon in which strong winds blow a large amount of dust substances on the ground into the air, making the air particularly turbid and the horizontal visibility is less than 1km. Sandstorm refers to a sand-laden storm formed by strong winds blowing a large amount of sand near the stratum. Sandstorms are storms formed by strong winds, which bring a lot of dust and other particles into the sky.

Concept, regulations and standards of sandstorm weather

First, the concept of dusty weather:

Dust weather can be divided into four categories: floating dust, sand blowing, sandstorm and strong sandstorm.

Floating dust: a weather phenomenon in which dust and fine sand float evenly in the air, making the horizontal visibility less than 10 km;

Sand blowing: a weather phenomenon in which the wind blows up dust on the ground, making the air quite turbid and the horizontal visibility is within the range of 1 km to1km;

Sandstorm: a weather phenomenon in which strong winds blow up a lot of dust on the ground, making the air very turbid and the horizontal visibility is less than 1 km;

Strong sandstorm: a weather phenomenon in which strong winds blow up dust on the ground, making the air turbid and the horizontal visibility less than 500 meters.

Second, the classification of dust weather process

Sandstorm weather process is divided into four categories: floating dust weather process, sand blowing weather process, sandstorm weather process and strong sandstorm weather process.

Floating dust weather process: in the same weather process and at the same observation time, floating dust weather occurred in five or more countries in China's weather forecast area;

Sand blowing weather process: in the same weather process and the same observation time, sand blowing weather occurs in five or more countries in China's weather forecast area;

Sandstorm weather process: in the same weather process, sandstorms occurred in three or more countries in China's weather forecast area at the same observation time;

Strong sandstorm weather process: in the same weather process, more than three countries in China's weather forecast area basically (quasi) stood at the same observation time, resulting in strong sandstorm weather.
