202 1 Latest news of Typhoon Chapaka. Has Chapaka landed in China?

In addition to the recent typhoon fireworks, there is also Chapaka that everyone is concerned about. After all, this typhoon is likely to land in China, so everyone should be prepared. At present, the latest news about typhoons is as follows for your reference.

The latest news

The tropical depression in the South China Sea intensified to Typhoon Chapaka No.2021at 8: 00 on 19, which is located about 175 km southeast of Yangjiang City, Guangdong Province. The maximum wind force near its center is Grade 8 (18m/s). As of 1 1, Guangdong * * * has issued 40 typhoon warnings, one rainstorm warning 1 1, and five yellow warnings for thunderstorms and strong winds.

The Guangdong Meteorological Bureau predicts that the strength of Chapaka Center will gradually increase, and it will land on the southern coast of Guangdong from the night of 20th to the early morning of 2nd/Kloc-0. Affected by it, there will be strong wind and rain in central and southern Guangdong and coastal areas.

Affected by the peripheral circulation of "Chapaka", 19 has obvious rainfall along the coast of Guangdong. At 9 o'clock that day, only three places in the province had temperatures above 30, and the high temperature weather eased a lot. The highest temperature is 30.9 in Xuwen, western Guangdong, and 24.9 in Puning, eastern Guangdong. On that day, it rained in Guangzhou and bid farewell to the hot weather for many days. 1 1 point, temperature 29.

Meteorologists said that "Chapaka" is close to the shore, and its development intensity is not expected to be too strong. Because it is far away from the subtropical high, the approaching airflow is weak and the moving speed is slow, so it may wander along the coast of Guangdong for a long time, affecting the wind and rain in the south of the province for a long time, and the accumulated rainfall is large.

According to the forecast of Guangdong Meteorological Bureau, there will be heavy rain in the southern Pearl River Delta and coastal cities and counties in western Guangdong on the 20th, and some cities and counties will have heavy rain accompanied by 6-8 gale. There is moderate to heavy rain in eastern Guangdong and central cities and counties of the Pearl River Delta. On February1day, there was heavy rain in the southern coastal cities and counties, and other cities and counties were cloudy with thunderstorms.

In addition, from June 5438+09 to 20, the winds in the coastal areas of eastern Guangdong and the Pearl River estuary were 6 to 7, and the gusts were 8.

Did Chapaka land in China?

Typhoon Chapaka: Small head and slow temper

According to Wang Tianqi, a meteorologist from China Weather Network, Typhoon Chapaka is relatively small. Its seven-level wind circle radius is only 80- 120 km, while the seven-level wind circle radius of Typhoon No.6 this year is 120-300 km. It can also be seen from the cloud image of Fengyun-4 satellite below that "Chapaka" is obviously smaller than "Fireworks".

Apart from being small, Chapaka is a chronic patient through and through. From 9:00 to 14:00 today, it only moved 10 kilometers. It is estimated that its moving speed will only be about 2 kilometers per hour in the future, which is similar to that of people walking. It is understood that the moving speed of typhoons is generally 20-30 kilometers per hour, so "Chapaka" can be regarded as a "snail" in the typhoon industry.

Chapaka may become the first typhoon to land in China this year.

At present, the moving path of Typhoon Chapaka is still variable, so it is difficult to forecast it. It may land in the coastal area from Shenzhen to Maoming in Guangdong Province from the night of 20th to the early morning of 2nd120th, becoming the first typhoon to land in China this year, but it may also wander in the coastal areas of central and western Guangdong, and then move northeast.

According to Wang Tianqi, the moving path of typhoon is generally affected by several weather systems such as subtropical high and tropical cyclone nearby, among which the most important factor is subtropical high. However, the subtropical high has recently moved northward, away from Chapaka. The lack of the main guidance system and the weak auxiliary steering flow make Chapaka an unattended child, which is unpredictable. In addition, when Chapaka was generated, it was close to the land, and it was possible to land with a little movement, which also increased the difficulty of forecasting.

Typhoon Chapaka has a positive impact on coastal cities and counties in Guangdong, with heavy rain and strong winds.

Wang Tianqi said that no matter whether Typhoon Chapaka makes landfall or not, it will bring obvious wind and rain impacts.

There will be 7~8 winds in the northern South China Sea, the central and western coastal areas of Guangdong and the eastern coastal areas of Hainan. The wind near Chapaka center is 9~ 10, and the gust is 1 1~ 12.

In response to Typhoon Chapaka, the Guangdong Meteorological Bureau upgraded the emergency response of major meteorological disasters (typhoons) to the first level at 9: 30 today.

Experts reminded that although the rainfall brought by "Chapaka" can alleviate the high temperature in Guangdong in the early stage, its path and intensity are complex and changeable, and it may have a double typhoon effect with "fireworks" in the later stage. It will wander along the coast of Guangdong for a long time, so it is necessary to pay attention to prevent disasters such as waterlogging, mountain torrents, mudslides and landslides in urban and rural areas that may be caused by continuous heavy precipitation. Passing ships, outbound fishing boats and offshore operators should quickly return to Hong Kong to take shelter from the wind, and coastal cities and counties in Guangdong should do a good job in typhoon prevention.
