When I woke up early this morning, I heard the whirring wind. Looking out the window, there are dark clouds - presumably a typhoon has made landfall this year.
Walking through the streets, there is less hustle and bustle of the past – there are few people, and the shops are closed. A gust of wind blew, and people couldn't open their eyes. Taking a step forward is like dragging a jack of bricks.
Coming to the Kowloon River, the Kowloon River is also contrary to the calm of the past, but ups and downs. After a while, a light rain began. I hurried home, and the wind blew the leaves everywhere, and the branches rustled ...... the branches
When I got home, it was raining heavily. Standing on the balcony, the mountains in the distance were gone, and the nearby buildings were also veiled. Looking downstairs, I saw a man walking on the community avenue, obviously caught off guard by the rainstorm, and hurriedly raised an umbrella.
But how can an umbrella resist the attack of the wind demon? Soon, the umbrella was blown off, and the passer-by had to run with his head in his hands and run to a place where he could shelter from the wind and rain. I hope this person doesn't catch a cold ......
My hometown is only affected by the external impact of a typhoon, which can bring such a powerful storm, but what about Taiwan, the treasure island through which the center of the typhoon passes? I learned on television that Taiwan was hit by the typhoon and caused flooding, and thousands of villages were flooded ......I looked in the direction of the treasure island of Taiwan, folded my hands, and silently prayed for the Taiwan compatriots: I hope that this typhoon will not cause major personnel ......
According to the data, global warming has increased the number and intensity of typhoons. According to statistics, global warming leads to the formation of an average of one typhoon within a few years; The odds of a super typhoon are also rising; Every typhoon can cause significant economic losses, and may even cause meteorological disasters such as floods, landslides, mudslides, and urban waterlogging that seriously endanger the safety of human life and property. But who is responsible for all this?
Not the masterpiece of humanity itself?
Stopping global warming is a prerequisite for stopping this dangerous trend, so protect the environment now! Let's do it!

I've heard about typhoons many times, but what really made me experience them, and what left a deep impression on me was in the summer when I was 9 years old.
A few days before the typhoon, the meteorological observatory issued an emergency notice, but the house leak happened to rain overnight, my parents had to work overtime, and I was the only one left at home.
The weather station is really good, very accurate! That day, when I got home from school, ** rang. It turned out that my father was worried about me, so he invited my grandmother Lu Qi to accompany me, and he said that my grandmother would come around 8 o'clock in the evening.
I poked my head out, and felt that the sky was oppressive, and the clouds in the sky seemed to be falling, and it was dark and dark, and the earth was as hot as an oven. I turned on the fan, poured a glass of water with ice, and began to observe the sky: the clouds were getting thicker and thicker, although it was only five o'clock in the afternoon in summer, but it was dark, the street lights were on, and then the dark clouds finally couldn't hold their breath, and it rained more and more, at first like a flower needle, then like soybeans, and finally it poured down.
The raindrops beat the glass of my house as if it were about to shatter it, and the wind blew the trees toss and down, and the leaves dance wildly, so that everything is lifeless, and the petals of the flowers are blown away by the wind. The wind and rain joined forces to ruthlessly lift up the things on the ground, only to see the small tiles on the house outside blowing away one by one, the trees being uprooted, the plants on the green belt were crooked, and the sound of tree trunks breaking came from outside; The sound of flower pots falling. At this time, the rain and wind came in actively, and I found that because I did not close the windows properly, which led to smashing, I hurriedly blocked them with a cloth, and had the courage to stick out my head to see, the streets and alleys became rivers, criss-crossed, and the water level was very high, and I was very afraid that there would be a flood, and then the lightning was like a golden dragon in the endless dark night to draw a beautiful arc, and the sky seemed to be divided into two parts, and then five thunderbolts hit the top, and I was so frightened that I shivered and got into the quilt.
At some point, I woke up to find that it had been the night, and when I stepped out of the balcony, it had rained and sunny. There was not a trace of clouds in the sky, and when I looked down, there was a mess, fragments of flowers and pots, glass slag, clothes. The water level has also receded a lot.
Although typhoons have caused a lot of inconvenience to everyone, typhoons can also benefit mankind, such as windmills to generate electricity, and it also has a credit. There are pros and cons to everything!

Hearing that this year's No. 1 typhoon "Pearl" will make landfall at the junction of Raoping County and Chenghai City in the early morning of the 18th, and hit Shantou City head-on, the whole city immediately implemented typhoon prevention measures: all the dilapidated houses were evacuated, the fishing boats immediately returned to the tanks, the primary and secondary schools were suspended, and the defense workers took care of the trees with too dense branches and leaves. On the afternoon of the 17th, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the typhoon warning signal on TV also changed from yellow to red.
I leaned against the window and watched the palm leaves downstairs being blown by the wind, and the raindrops the size of beans falling from the sky and hitting the leaves with a "clatter". In the evening, the torrential rain poured down, and the black rainstorm signal came into effect, and suddenly the sky and the earth were darkened, and the wind was fierce. At this time, I saw the PLA uncle on TV holding the child and carrying the old man to evacuate from the dilapidated house with difficulty, and I suddenly thought:
At this time, many branches are broken, will the birds have no home? "The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, and I fell asleep restlessly at my mother's urging.
On the morning of the 18th, I woke up and my father told me that the typhoon had made landfall and that I was going to school this afternoon. I immediately ran to the window and looked up at the sky, the sky was clear, the wind was beautiful, it really didn't look like a typhoon.
In the afternoon, on my way to school, I saw mud everywhere, fallen leaves and branches, and an old tree that had been uprooted by the typhoon. A bus stop was also crushed by a tree, but fortunately no one was waiting there at the time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable. Some shops on the side of the road were busy throwing water out with basins.
There was water everywhere on the road, and many cars under the chassis stalled, causing traffic jams. I was cautious, I was afraid of sinking into the mud.
Typhoon Pearl was so powerful that it showed me the intimidating side of nature, and we should learn to live in peace with nature in order to reduce the occurrence of disasters.
