    According to the latest news of the 2020 Indian typhoon released by typhoon monitoring, due to the extremely abundant sea energy in the Bay of Bengal and the imminent outbreak of monsoon water vapor, the Indian typhoon has a potential impact on China. For China, the South China Sea summer monsoon broke out, and the rain in many places in the south will also be heavier and more intense.

    Satellite imagery. On the evening of May 11, when many places in southern China were hit by the fierce weather brought by the squall line, the situation at sea was not calm - from the satellite cloud image, a large number of tropical clouds appeared in the western Pacific Ocean, the embryo of Typhoon No. 1 was developing, and at the same time, a large number of tropical clouds in the northern Indian Ocean were also emerging, and the Bay of Bengal also seemed to have signs of imminent tropical cyclone development.

    Although there are no new storm embryos in the northern Indian Ocean, supercomputer researchers believe that the emergence of a tropical cyclone is already inevitable with the rapid increase in water vapor and convective activity that follows. Of course, a tropical cyclone in the Bay of Bengal is not called a typhoon, but a cyclonic storm. Although the names are different, they are actually the difference between tomatoes and tomatoes, and they are different names for the same weather system, and we can also call it "Typhoon India".

    Judging from the supercomputer, the "Indian typhoon" in the Bay of Bengal in the northern Indian Ocean may develop a storm embryo in the next two days and strengthen rapidly, and the central pressure will be as low as 993 hPa around May 14, which is equivalent to a tropical storm, which also means that this "Indian typhoon" may be generated in the southern waters of the Bay of Bengal around May 14.

    In the past few days, another powerful "typhoon" has appeared on the west coast of India. In Indian language, this is called a "cyclonic storm", which is actually the same thing as a typhoon in Chinese, and we will replace it with a typhoon for ease of understanding. In fact, there have been many typhoons in India this year.

    In May, Super Typhoon Amphan swept off the east coast of India, reaching 17 winds, and finally hit Kolkata, the ancient capital and third largest city of India, with the strength of a strong typhoon.

    Super storm Amphan in May.

    According to the Joint Typhoon Warning Center of the United States, Nisaga's animated multispectral satellite and radar images depict a large broken eye with a diameter of 20 nautical miles, estimated by the Dvořák method, and the intensity is assessed at about 75 knots (equivalent to a typhoon in our standard, 12 magnitude, 33 meters and seconds). However, Nisaga landed in Mumbai, the second largest city known as "India's Little Shanghai" and India's financial, economic and cultural center.

    Meteorological monitoring showed that Nisaga made landfall 70 kilometers south of Mumbai, and at the time of landfall there were still maximum winds of 12 near the center, that is, it was the peak of landfall in Mumbai. Before and after landfall, Alibagh south of Mumbai reported a mean sea-level pressure of 100 Pa and surface winds of up to 102 knots, equivalent to force 16 winds. Due to the topography and latitude, it is rare for Mumbai to have such a strong typhoon hit, and as a result, Nisaga has also become the strongest storm in Mumbai in 70 years, which has caused a lot of damage and **.

    To make matters worse, Nisaga is so large that it will cross the Deccan Plateau and hit the densely populated Gangetic plain, potentially affecting more than 100 million people. As we all know, the recent outbreak of new crown pneumonia in India has caused the virus to spread very quickly, so will the blowing of Nisaga blow the virus everywhere, and even roll the virus into the air and transport it to our country through the westerly wind? Some netizens have raised concerns.

    But in reality, this worry is unfounded. The new crown pneumonia virus is highly dependent on the host, that is, human existence, even if the virus is blown into the air by a typhoon, it will quickly settle to the ground under the blow of rain, and then be washed away; Even if it is not washed away, it will quickly become inactivated and lose its infectivity. Taking another 10,000 steps back, even if the virus is swept into the high-altitude westerly wind belt, it will have to cross the Himalayas and other high mountains on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which is almost an impossible task, and netizens are too worried.

    However, the storms and destruction of India's infrastructure in Nisaga will indeed make the region's already fragile virus defense system more vulnerable, and it is indeed possible to exacerbate the spread of the virus and the outbreak of pneumonia. In the event of a typhoon, it is not China that needs to be worried, but India. Remind the Chinese in India to pay attention to safety.

    India has typhoons, why many people feel that there is no typhoon in India, first of all, we have to understand what a typhoon is, typhoon is actually a regional name for tropical storms, tropical storms in the Atlantic region are called hurricanes, tropical storms in the Pacific region are called typhoons, and tropical storms in the Indian Ocean are called cyclonic storms. On the other hand, the geological structure also affects the probability of tropical storms in various regions, due to atmospheric circulation and the earth's bias force, it is impossible to form a storm near the equator, and the general area above five degrees north and south latitudes can form storms, and the Indian Ocean five degrees north of the equator is limited, and the Pacific cyclone is blocked by Southeast Asia, which is difficult to cross, so the frequency of storms in the North Indian Ocean is far less frequent than that of the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. But less doesn't mean nothing, for example, when a supercyclone named Felin formed in the Bay of Bengal in 2013 and then made landfall in India, killing 25 people and forcing 800,000 people to evacuate their homes. Therefore, it is not that India is free of tropical storms, but the frequency of occurrence is relatively small, and the names are different, which has led to the misconception that India is "typhoon-free".

    India is not without typhoons, but in different parts of the world, the names are slightly different, and their cores are all tropical cyclones. Cyclonic storms in the northern Indian Ocean tend to form between April and June or from September to January. The peak generally occurs in May and November, with the highest peak in November.

    There are also typhoons in India, but their typhoons are not that big, and the typhoons have weakened every time they pass through India, and the small typhoons have little impact on their local area, so the damage caused is also small.

    There are typhoons in the Indian region because the southern part of India is next to the Indian Ocean, and there are typhoons in the Indian Ocean, so there are typhoons in the southern part of India!

    India's borders on the Pacific Ocean and its tropical location will definitely be affected by typhoons. However, locals generally refer to typhoons as tropical storms.

    The term typhoon does not exist in the Indian region. Typhoons are tropical storms that occur around the Pacific Ocean, while tropical storms that occur in India are not called typhoons, but cyclones, but not as frequent as typhoons.

    There will be typhoons in the Indian region, because they are mainly close to the Indian Ocean, and if the Indian Ocean is 3 meters, there will be typhoons, and they will be affected. The influence of the atmosphere will blow to the Indian region.

    India is hot all over the country, mostly in a tropical monsoon climate, while the Thar Desert in western India has a tropical desert climate. In summer, there is a more pronounced monsoon, while in winter there is no more pronounced monsoon. India's climate is divided into rainy season (June October), dry season (March May) and cool season (February of the following year), and in winter, it is affected by the Himalayan barrier, and there is no cold snap or cold high pressure southward affecting India.

    Isn't it normal for a typhoon to exist in the eastern region? India proposes the South Asian region. It is a typhoon-prone area.

    This Indian Ocean, those oceans and similar coastal areas are all formed by hurricanes or typhoons. Since new, so it is normal to have typhoons, and many places in India are brought by typhoons. Since new, so it is normal to have typhoons, and many places in India are brought by typhoons.

    exists. India has typhoon activity in both the Bay of Bengal in the east and the Arabian Sea in the west.

    However, this tropical cyclone in the northern Indian Ocean is generally not called a typhoon, but a cyclone or cyclone

    By the way, the most active time of cyclonic storms is in April May and October November of each year.

    In addition,The multi-day rain in northeastern India on September 22 and 27 that you mentioned was not a typhoon at all.

    There are no typhoons in the Indian Ocean, but there are monsoons in the Indian Ocean, and the West Asian region is affected by the northeast trade winds in the summer and the westerly wind belt in the mid-latitudes in the winter, and the wind is very strong, so the design of the Burj Khalifa also considers the influence of the wind.

    Of course, there are typhoons in the Indian region, as India is a coastal country located on the eastern coast of the Indian Ocean. Typhoons generally form in the ocean, so it is normal for typhoons to exist in India.

    The Indian region faces the Pacific Ocean, so the Indian region is more affected by typhoons. And it's usually attacked by tropical landscapes.

  20. Anonymous users2024-01-23

    Hurricanes and typhoons are caused by seasonal currents in the Pacific Ocean, and currents in the Indian Ocean are weak and have a long period, which is less likely to cause gyronavies.

    Typhoons (a type of tropical cyclone) occur over the tropical or subtropical oceans as a powerful and deep tropical weather system; It is a classification of tropical cyclones in countries or regions north of the equator and west of the date line.

    The initial stage of a typhoon is a tropical depression, from the initial low pressure circulation to the maximum average wind force near the center of the eight, generally takes about 2 days, the slow one takes three or four days, and the fast one only takes a few hours.

    Hello lz.

    Who told you that there are no typhoons on the coast of the Indian Ocean?!

    However, the coast of the Indian Ocean is generally not called a typhoon, but a cyclone

    The essence is the same thing as a typhoon in the Northwest Pacific.

    In fact, the Southern Indian Ocean is the third largest source of tropical cyclones in the world, with the most frequent occurrences occurring in November and April. Invasions of Western Australia, Madagascar, Reunion and Mauritius, sometimes in the Mozambique Channel.

    The North Indian Ocean is difficult to develop in the summer due to the strong southwest monsoon and terrible wind shear, but March May and October and November will be the two wind seasons in the North Indian Ocean, the wind season in the Bay of Bengal at the turn of spring and summer is easy to hit Myanmar and Thailand, and the wind season in autumn and winter is easy to hit Bangladesh and India in the north or northwest; Cyclones in the Arabian Sea generally move northwest and hit the Arabian Peninsula. This year, when we didn't have a typhoon before June, two cyclones of considerable intensity rushed to the Gulf of Aden between Asia and the Arabian Peninsula.

    Worldwide, only the coasts of East and Southeast Asia will experience typhoons. and on the U.S. Gulf Coast, there will be hurricanes. Typhoons and hurricanes are actually the same thing, except that those in East and Southeast Asia are called typhoons, and those in the Gulf of Mexico in the United States are called hurricanes.

    Because there are some areas where typhoons do not make landfall, for example, Japan is often ** and China ** is rare.

    One of the necessary conditions for the formation of a typhoon is sufficient geostrophic deflection force, and most of Indonesia's land is near the equator, so there is no typhoon even if the water temperature there is very high. Although Indonesia is located in the tropics, most of the country is located near the equator, lacks geostrophic deflection forces, and is almost invulnerable to typhoons in history.

    There are some rare cases, such as Typhoon Thrush, which made landfall on the Indonesian island of Sumatra in 2001.

    Because Indonesia is located in the equatorial windless zone.

    Because the horizontal distribution of temperature is relatively uniform, the horizontal pressure gradient is very small, the airflow is mainly convergent rising, and the wind speed is weak, so it is called the equatorial windless zone.

    The huge cyclones generated in the Pacific Ocean are called typhoons, and the ones generated in the Indian Ocean are not called typhoons, and the Indochina Peninsula has enough depth, so it is basically impossible for the typhoons generated in the Pacific Ocean to blow to India, but according to the butterfly effect, it should be affected.

    The term "cyclonic storm" is commonly used in the northern Indian Ocean region, which is the same as a typhoon.

    The Northern Indian Ocean is also one of the sources of tropical cyclones: it includes the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea, and is mainly generated in the Bay of Bengal. The windy season in the North Indian Ocean has two peaks:

    One in April and May before the start of the monsoon, and the other in October and November after the monsoon ends. It affects countries such as India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Myanmar and Pakistan, and sometimes the Arabian Peninsula.

    For example, in 1989, Typhoon Gay No. 32 in the western Pacific Ocean made landfall in Thailand, crossed the Kra Isthmus in the middle of the Malay Peninsula and entered the Indian Ocean, making landfall in India, becoming one of the few typhoons that affected both the western Pacific Ocean and the northern Indian Ocean.

    Oh, it seems that the typhoon will be called a cyclonic storm when it arrives in the northern Indian Ocean, and it will be renamed a typhoon when Hurricane Iokhai arrives in the western Pacific o(o
