What month is the typhoon season in Fujian?

The typhoon season in Fujian is from May to 10.

Generally, every summer in China, typhoon season will be ushered in in South China or southeast coastal areas. Most typhoons in Fujian are concentrated in summer and autumn (May to 10), but mainly in July and August. The frequency and intensity of typhoons are relatively high, and these two are also midsummer, which is basically not suitable for frequent travel to Fujian.

The occurrence of typhoon needs huge energy. In summer, the high temperature, high humidity and abundant energy on the ocean are conducive to the occurrence of typhoons, while in winter it is the opposite, so there are more typhoons in summer and fewer in winter.

The word "typhoon" evolved from Cantonese "gale" and Minnan "wind station". According to the definition of the World Meteorological Organization, a tropical cyclone with a central wind force exceeding 12 and a wind speed of 32.7 meters per second can be called a typhoon (or hurricane).

Meteorological definition

Typhoon (English: Typhoon) is a tropical cyclone. Tropical cyclone is a low-pressure vortex that occurs on the surface of tropical or subtropical oceans, and it is a powerful and profound "tropical weather system". In China, tropical cyclones in the northwest Pacific are classified into six grades according to the maximum average wind speed near the center of the surface layer, and the wind force near the center reaches 12 or above, which is collectively called typhoon.

Typhoons often bring strong winds, heavy rains and storm surges, which not only bring disasters to human beings, but also bring benefits to human beings. Typhoon has brought abundant fresh water resources to human beings, which is of great significance for improving fresh water supply and ecological environment. In addition, typhoons also keep the global cold and heat relatively balanced; The climate in the equatorial region is hot. If the typhoon does not disperse this heat, the tropics will be hotter, the frigid zone will be colder and the temperate zone will disappear from the earth.
