What does a typhoon mean? 14 typhoon is coming.

Typhoon is a natural disaster that we are all familiar with. So far, many areas in our country have been affected by typhoons, and today typhoons are coming again, so let us know what typhoons mean. Typhoon 14 is coming?

What does a typhoon mean?

Typhoon is a strong tropical cyclone generated on the surface of tropical ocean. The meteorological department's definition of typhoon landing is that the typhoon center moves to land as a whole. Typhoons are often accompanied by strong winds and heavy rains. The wind rotates counterclockwise. Isobars and isotherms are approximately a set of concentric circles. The central air pressure is the lowest and the temperature is the highest. The so-called typhoon center is generally the eye of the typhoon. That is to say, when the moving track of the eye of the typhoon intersects with the coastline, the typhoon will land, and the intersection of this center point and the coastline is the landing point. Typhoon classification. Typhoons are classified according to the maximum wind force near the center of tropical cyclones. In the past, the meteorological department of our country called the winds with the magnitude of 8 to 1 1 as typhoons, and the winds with the magnitude of 12 or above as strong typhoons. The landing point of a typhoon does not necessarily mean that it is the most severely affected place. The reason for saying this is mainly because the disasters brought by typhoons to a place are mainly through the strong winds, heavy rains and storm surges it brings.

Typhoon 14 is coming.

The Central Meteorological Observatory continued to issue the orange warning of typhoon 18 on September/2: the center of this year's typhoon "Candu" (super typhoon level) is located at 5 o'clock today (12) in the southern part of the East China Sea about 430 kilometers south-east of Xiangshan, Zhejiang, which is 25.6 degrees north latitude and 18 east longitude. The maximum wind force near the center is 16 (52m/s), the minimum air pressure in the center is 935 hectopascals, the radius of the seventh wind ring is 220-300km, the radius of the tenth wind ring is 100- 150km, and the radius of the twelfth wind ring is 50-70km. According to the observation, this year's No.4 typhoon "Candu" (super typhoon level) will move to the north at a speed of about 20 ~ 25 kilometers per hour, and it will be at 13 (38 ~ 45 m/s, typhoon level13 ~1today. The forecast of the future "Candu" path is uncertain, and the meteorological department will release the latest typhoon dynamics and forecast and early warning information in time.

How did the typhoon get its name?

Because there may be multiple typhoons in the ocean at the same time, the joint typhoon warning center established by the US military in Guam (now moved to Hawaii) during World War II is used to naming each typhoon. The first names were all women, and later the male names were added to 1979. Since 2000, the name of typhoon has been changed to Typhoon Committee of the International Meteorological Organization. At present, the names of typhoons in the Northwest Pacific and South China Sea are provided by members of Typhoon Committee 14 (China, North Korea, South Korea, Japan, Cambodia, Vietnam, etc.). ), divided into five groups. The actual naming work was entrusted to the Japan Meteorological Agency (Tokyo Professional Meteorological Center) in this area. Whenever the Japan Meteorological Agency determines a tropical cyclone in the northwest Pacific or the South China Sea as the intensity of a tropical storm, it will give it a name and a four-digit number according to the list. The first two digits of the number are the year, and the last two digits are the order of tropical storms in that year. For example, 03 12, that is, tropical stormNo. 12 in 2003 (when it reaches the intensity of a strong tropical storm, it is called a strong tropical storm 12; When it reaches the typhoon intensity, it is called Typhoon 12, named KROVANH in English and Korowang in Chinese; 03 13 was the tropical stormNo. 13 in 2003, which was named Du Juan in English and Du Fu in Chinese. The Chinese name of typhoon is determined by China Meteorological Bureau after consulting the meteorological departments of Hongkong and Macao.

The harm of typhoon

Typhoons can cause floods. After typhoon "Fete" landed, waterlogging in Yuyao and other places was serious, and the water in many streets was waist deep, exceeding 1 meter. Some primary and secondary schools were forced to suspend classes.

2. Typhoon will drown people. In areas swept by typhoons, houses may be damaged, and people who have no time to escape may be injured, drowned or electrocuted.

Typhoon will destroy buildings. Typhoon will not only destroy fragile buildings, but also destroy crops, drown some cows, lose their fields and even their animals.
