Typhoon "Meihua" may affect 12 provinces, and many places in Zhejiang announced the suspension of classes.
BEIJING, Beijing, September 14 (Wei Xianghui) According to the news of China Meteorological Bureau on the 13th, the 12th typhoon "Meihua" this year will land in the coastal area from Wenling to Zhoushan in Zhejiang Province from the afternoon of 14th to the night (typhoon level or strong typhoon level).
Experts said that the typhoon "Meihua" is very strong, with the characteristics of long wind and rain, large influence range and high tide level superimposed with astronomical tide. It is an autumn typhoon with great power. The Central Meteorological Observatory has upgraded the typhoon warning to orange warning, second only to the highest red warning.
12 provinces and cities face "plum blossom"
According to China Weather Network, "Meihua" was formed in the northwest Pacific Ocean on the 8th, moved into the southern part of the East China Sea in the early morning of the 13th, and strengthened into a strong typhoon at 5am.
The Central Meteorological Observatory predicts that "Meihua" will move to the northwest at a speed of 10 to 15 kilometers per hour, and its intensity will be strengthened. It will gradually approach the coastal area from Wenling, Zhejiang Province to Zhoushan, and will land in the above coastal areas from the afternoon of the 14th to the night (typhoon level or strong typhoon level); After landing, Meihua will continue to move to the northwest, and its intensity will gradually weaken.
With Plum Blossom heading north, the rainfall in northern Taiwan Province will gradually weaken in the next few days, and Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai will enter the core period of the strongest typhoon impact today and tomorrow.
Among them, heavy rain and heavy rain will be concentrated in southern Jiangsu, southeastern Anhui, central and northern Zhejiang, Shanghai and other places.
At present, "Meihua" is a strong typhoon, and its intensity will be strengthened when it is close to the land, and it may go deep inland. Due to the combination of the trough on the north side of the typhoon and cold air, the wind and rain will spread to 12 provinces and cities such as Taiwan Province, Fujian, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Anhui, Jiangsu, Shandong, Hebei, Henan (eastern part), Liaoning and Jilin, and even the rainfall ratio landing in northern Jiangsu and Shandong will not be ruled out.
Shut down! Stop flying! Suspension of classes!
According to the emergency management department, in view of the severe impact of typhoon Meihua on China, according to the relevant provisions of the National Emergency Plan for Flood Control and Drought Relief, the National Defense General upgraded the emergency response of flood control and typhoon prevention from level 4 to level 3 at 12: 00 on September 13th, and made arrangements for typhoon defense.
At present, two working groups sent by the National Defense General Office are assisting and guiding local authorities to carry out flood control and typhoon prevention work in Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces. Zhejiang province’s anti-finger index has started the second-level emergency response against typhoon, and Jiangsu, Shanghai, Fujian and other provinces and cities have started the fourth-level emergency response against typhoon.
The Yangtze River Delta Railway announced that it plans to stop some passenger trains on Shanghai-Kunming, Xiaoyong, Beijing-Shanghai and other general-speed lines from the 13th. Please refer to the station announcement for information about the number and time of stopping passenger trains. In the next step, the railway department will pay close attention to the change of typhoon path, dynamically adjust the train operation plan according to the actual situation such as wind speed, rainfall and disaster impact, and do its best to prevent typhoon to ensure the safety of railway transportation and passenger travel.
In addition, the flood control offices in Shandong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shanghai and other places issued a notice to do a good job in the defense of Typhoon Meihua, the 12th typhoon this year. The Shanghai Flood Control Office requires all districts, departments and units to maintain high vigilance, scientifically implement defensive measures, and start the "six stops" measures of suspension of classes, suspension of work, suspension of service, suspension of navigation, suspension of parks and closure of business as appropriate to fully meet the test of Typhoon Meihua.
All offshore fishing boats in Zhejiang Province have returned to Hong Kong to take shelter from the wind before 12 noon on the 13th, and all recreational fishing boats have been closed before 18: 00 on the 12th, and all marine aquaculture personnel have been evacuated ashore. In addition, classes in Ningbo, Zhoushan, Taizhou and other places in Zhejiang were suspended for one day on the 14th.
Drought in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River may be alleviated.
Because the core influence period of "Plum Blossom" is after the Mid-Autumn Festival, which coincides with the astronomical tide period around August 18th (13th) of the lunar calendar, the harm caused by the superposition of the two causes concern.
Dong Lin, chief forecaster of the Central Meteorological Observatory, said that the impact of typhoon Meihua should be divided into two.
Dong Lin suggested that relevant departments should pay attention to prevent the adverse effects of strong winds caused by typhoons, especially on the east China coast and the East China Sea; In view of the great influence of high temperature some time ago, the drought in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China is more serious, and typhoon precipitation may be beneficial to alleviate the drought in this area, reservoir storage and agricultural water use.
Wang Weiyue, a meteorologist of China Weather Network, said that the easterly onshore wind prevailing on the north side of the typhoon center will continuously roll the seawater to land. At present, the landing place of typhoon is expected to be in the coastal area from Wenling to Zhoushan in Zhejiang Province, and Hangzhou Bay is just in the area affected by easterly winds. In addition, its trumpet-shaped terrain makes it easy for seawater to accumulate in this area, superimposed by astronomical tides and other factors, which makes the water level in this area rise, which is not good for urban drainage after continuous rainfall. It is necessary to prepare for urban waterlogging in advance.
In addition, in view of the fact that some scholars believe that the typhoon "Meihua" may stop or turn around near the junction of Jiangsu, Henan and Anhui in the later period, Dong Lin said that this possibility cannot be ruled out. "At present, the forecast still has certain uncertainties. It is recommended that relevant departments pay attention to the typhoon impact and path forecast in time and adjust preventive measures in time." (End)
