Beijing, July 7 /Xinhua/ — More typhoons are expected in China in July this year that may make landfall or affect the coastal areas of the country than in previous years. This forecast was issued by the National Climate Center (NCC).
According to forecasts, from four to six typhoons will form in July in the northwestern Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea, with two to three of them likely to make landfall in coastal areas of China or affect these areas. This will be above the average for previous years in the same month – 1.8 typhoons, reported Deputy Head of the NCC Yuan Jiashuang.
According to her, there is also a risk that sufficiently strong typhoons might move north and affect Northern China.
An expert advised the relevant authorities to develop in advance an action plan to prevent and respond to emergencies related to heavy rains, floods, strong winds, and storm surges caused by typhoons.
The first typhoon to hit China this year was “Maysak,” which, after reaching the coast of Hainan Province, brought stormy winds and heavy rains to the coastal areas of southern China.
In particular, heavy rains are falling in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, with some places receiving more than 700 mm of precipitation in a day.
According to the National Meteorological Center (NMC), Maesak has currently weakened to the level of a tropical depression, but continues to move northward, bringing prolonged heavy rains to extensive areas from the southern coast to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the Huanghuai region.
Following “Maysak,” super typhoon “Bavi,” which formed on July 2, will likely strike the east coast of China, the National Meteorological Center predicts, noting that starting from July 9, “Bavi” will bring strong winds and heavy rains to East China.
The NMC also warned that “Bavi” may advance inland, and heavy precipitation is also possible in the central and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, as well as in Northern China and the Huanghuai region. -0-
