When the typhoon struck, Shanghai Airport "tied the plane". What is the maximum wind speed?

Typhoon Meihua is getting closer and closer to China recently. Due to the typhoon, flights in East China have been cancelled. In an airport in Shanghai, in order to ensure the safety of the plane, the staff tied the plane firmly to the mooring device of the airport with a fastening belt to avoid being blown away by the strong wind. In typhoon weather, if the aircraft is improperly fixed, once the typhoon level is too large, the aircraft is likely to move, leading to the displacement and collision of the aircraft, which is a very serious threat to the aircraft and the airport.

As we all know, the weight of an airplane should be very heavy. I didn't expect that even the plane was afraid of being blown away by the typhoon. It is conceivable that the power of this typhoon should not be underestimated. According to the relevant meteorological department, Typhoon Meihua has been completely confirmed to land in China's coastal areas, which is bound to have an impact on the weather in coastal areas. The maximum wind speed of typhoon can reach 42 meters per second. At present, the maximum wind speed near the typhoon center is about 14, and the intensity may continue to strengthen during the subsequent movement.

After the typhoon landed, it mainly affected Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. The Central Meteorological Observatory issued an orange warning for typhoon. It is expected that there will be extreme weather such as strong winds and heavy rains in many places, reminding the broad masses of the people to take adequate protective measures to deal with typhoon weather during this period. The current typhoon level has reached about 14. If it will be strengthened in the future, it is likely to rise to 15 or 16, and its destructive power will become even greater.

During the typhoon, residents in coastal areas had better not go out. They can store their daily necessities at home in advance for a rainy day. If they have to go out, they must pay more attention. In addition, if the heavy rainfall caused by typhoon lasts too long, there will be water on the road surface, so when walking, it is best to avoid the road sections with serious water accumulation and protect your own safety.
