Will the typhoon come to Nanjing?

The No.6 super typhoon Kanon in 2023 is the sixth named storm in this year's Pacific typhoon season. The name "Khanun" was provided by Thailand, which means paramita (a Thai fruit).

Tropical Disturbance 9 1W, the predecessor of typhoon khanun, was generated in the southwest waters of Guam on July 22nd, 2023. It developed into a tropical storm east of the Philippines in the early morning of July 28th. In the early morning of July 30, it was upgraded to a strong tropical storm level by the Central Meteorological Observatory and upgraded to a typhoon level in the afternoon.

3 1 typhoon khanun was strengthened to a strong typhoon level in the morning and a super typhoon level in the afternoon. Kanu is expected to move to the northwest at a speed of about15km per hour, and is expected to move into the East China Sea on the morning of the 2nd. There will be a strong wind and waves in most parts of the East China Sea, and the sea conditions will be bad.

According to the meteorological news in Nanjing, it is expected that typhoon khanun will have a certain impact on Nanjing next week, reminding everyone to take precautions at that time.

Preventive measures for typhoon weather:

1, try to avoid going out: try to avoid going out before the typhoon comes. If you have to travel, you must take corresponding protective measures, such as taking protective rain gear. Avoid walking on roads or bridges near rivers and beaches. When the typhoon comes, stay away from the construction site and under the dangerous shed to prevent people from falling out.

2. Close the doors and windows at home: When the typhoon comes, close the doors and windows in time. Clothes hanging outside should be taken down, and flowerpots and other sundries on the balcony should be put away to avoid being blown away or falling by the wind and hurting people.

3. No swimming at the seaside: Never swim at the seaside when a typhoon comes. The violent waves are beating with the typhoon, so it is difficult for you to escape at once. When you realize the danger, it's too late.

4. Don't touch the fallen wires easily: outdoors, if you find that the high-voltage tower has been knocked down and the wires are drooping or broken, don't go near it, let alone touch it with your hands. You should jump with one foot.
