This year’s No. 5 Typhoon Dusurui strengthened into a super typhoon at 20:00 on July 24, and the Fujian Provincial Meteorological Observatory continued to issue “Typhoon Warning Level III” on the 25th.
At 11 o’clock on the 25th, Typhoon Dusurui is about 540 kilometers southeast of Eluanbi, Taiwan Province. The maximum wind force near the center is above level 17 (62 m/s, super typhoon level). The speed of 20 kilometers is moving to the west and north, gradually approaching the southern coast of Taiwan, and gradually approaching the central and southern coast of Fujian on the 27th, and it is most likely to land in this area from the early morning to the morning of the 28th.
How is the typhoon going? What impact will the wind and rain bring to Fujian?
According to the analysis of Huang Zhigang, deputy director and senior engineer of the Fujian Provincial Meteorological Service Center, from the satellite cloud image, the cloud structure of Typhoon Dusurui is very solid, and the typhoon eye is clear, which means that the typhoon is very strong. When a typhoon passes through the Bashi Channel, the sea temperature in the sea area it passes through is relatively high, which is very conducive to maintaining or even strengthening the intensity of the typhoon. When the typhoon reaches the southern area of the Taiwan Strait, due to the influence of the terrain, the intensity of the typhoon may weaken to a strong typhoon level. However, Typhoon Dusurui is still very powerful. Everyone should pay great attention to it and prepare for defense.
In terms of the influence of wind, the area with the strongest typhoon wind is on the sea surface where the center of the typhoon passes, and the strongest wind can reach level 17. The coastal winds in the central and northern parts of Fujian are slightly weaker, but the central and southern coastal areas are shrouded in the typhoon’s wind circle, and the winds are very strong.
