Is there a typhoon in Shanghai?

Yes, Shanghai will be affected by Typhoon Dusuri.

Typhoon "Dusuri" is the No. 5 typhoon in 2023. It has now strengthened to a super typhoon level and is expected to make landfall on the coast from central Fujian to eastern Guangdong from the morning to the morning of the 28th.

Since the track of the typhoon is still uncertain, Shanghai may be affected by its peripheral circulation, resulting in the following situations: From the 27th to the 29th, Shanghai sometimes has showers or thunderstorms, with obvious shower characteristics and localized rainfall. The area may experience short-term heavy rainfall. During the day from the 28th to the 29th, there were strong winds in Shanghai, with southeasterly winds of level 5 and gusts of level 6 to 7 on land, and stronger at sea.

From the 27th to the 29th, the temperature in Shanghai dropped slightly, with the highest temperature around 30°C and the lowest temperature around 27°C. Therefore, the impact of Typhoon Dusuri on Shanghai is mainly reflected in wind, rain and temperature.

Characteristics of Typhoon

"Dusuri" is generally stable, but there is some uncertainty as to whether it is heading west or east. Generally speaking, it will make landfall on the coast from central Fujian to eastern Guangdong as a typhoon level or a strong typhoon level from the morning to the morning of the 28th. When forecasters determine the path of a typhoon, they usually compare multiple numerical models.

For "Dusuri", in addition to comparing China's CMA-TYM regional typhoon numerical forecast model and the numerical models of the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, the U.S. National Centers for Environmental Forecasts and other institutions, the Central Meteorological Observatory also tried to refer to Some large AI meteorological model forecast systems can determine the most likely direction of typhoons.

Typhoon Dusuri has a complete and compact structure. Compared with other typhoons with scattered cloud patterns, its wind and rain influence range is relatively concentrated, but the precipitation and wind intensity are high in the areas where the cloud system passes.
