Why do reports in the media feel that hurricanes in the United States are more serious than typhoons in Asia?

Tropical cyclone correlation and media correlation. The conclusion comes before < P >: media reports and subjective feelings.

First, let's talk about the differences between tropical cyclones in the western Pacific and the North Atlantic. The overall intensity of typhoons in the western Pacific is definitely stronger than hurricanes in the north Atlantic.

The reason why ordinary people can't compare lies in their different evaluation systems. China uses the two-minute average wind speed, while the United States uses the one-minute < P > average, and the classification of tropical cyclones is quite different. Although there is a general conversion relationship between the two wind power systems, it is not accurate

. If the conversion of American data is directly copied, it will be very distorted (and usually seriously inflated), such as the data reported in many media.

first, fortunately, the United States has relatively unified monitoring of tropical cyclones all over the world. In the following, we will use the American SSHWS classification method (that is, the hurricane with several grades) for comparison. In fact, there are still many good hurricane landing intensities in the United States, including the whole area of responsibility in the United States. For example, Harvey, who landed in Texas this time and didn't leave because of < P >, made a typhoon disaster first and then made a rain disaster. Its landing intensity is about C4 lower limit, and the evaluation system in China can give a strong typhoon < P >. The following road map can be found in Wikipedia. Let's give some examples of strong hurricanes that landed in recent years. However, in recent years, even including the entire North Atlantic hurricane circle, there are actually no strong < P > hurricanes (there are relatively few strong hurricanes in the C5 window period from 8 to 15).

These are some strong hurricanes when they landed in recent years. It is not difficult to find that many of them are strengthened near the shore, which is probably related to the strong Gulf Stream on the east coast of America. In fact, the playful name of many strong hurricanes in the North Atlantic in the fan circle is "invincible series of warm current".

then look at the situation in the western Pacific. In fact, there are quite a few strong landings in the western Pacific. In recent years, China has also eaten a lot of

strong typhoons, so I will only list here the strong typhoons that landed in China in the past 14 years and were judged by the Central Meteorological Observatory or the typhoons that landed with stronger intensity

.

In p>214, rammasun landed in Hainan, and there was a newspaper C5, which boarded Zhanjiang C4 and boarded Beihai about C3 upper limit. The first two landings of the Central Meteorological Observatory were given to the < P > Super Station, and the last one was given to a strong typhoon.

second, put the path map endlessly so far. In 13~17 years, some typhoons that landed strongly in the western Pacific were more than almost all typhoons in the North Atlantic

7~17. It seems that the Western Pacific is still much stronger. After all, it took several years for people to get a C5 in the North Atlantic. I just tinkered with it here in the Western Pacific. The skinny camel is bigger than the horse, so it is still possible to get a C2C3 when landing.

Through these comparisons, I want to say that there are many tropical cyclones with strong landfall in the North Atlantic and the Western Pacific, but it is true that our

typhoon is higher than their hurricane.

then start the second block and see how the media reported it.

In fact, the media coverage of their own typhoons and hurricanes is very high

, so it is convenient for them to report, and their relationship is also closer. For example, the day when Tiange just boarded Zhuhai in Macau, when something happened to MH17, and it was said that the typhoon was too strong, many news could not be transferred.

What I really want to talk about is the foreign hurricane. Personally, it is mainly because distance produces beauty and mystery. The national conditions of the United States and China are very different. For example, it is a common scene that troops paddle assault boats to save people when a typhoon comes to China. In the United States, urban waterlogging has occurred, and the most < P > priority is to maintain public order and prevent criminals from taking advantage of the fire to rob. There is no need to criticize the inaction of the United States blindly. Third, and sometimes he doesn't have relevant common sense, he will feel strange, won't he? We can also look at it from another angle. Foreign media are always hyping up the events in China and making big news out of small events in China. In fact, the root

is that they don't understand and are unfamiliar with the national conditions in China. If it's normal (but it may not be), I won't find fault with China all day. Of course, ideological conflicts are still difficult to bridge.

Therefore, the feeling that the hurricane is more serious lies not only in the media reports, but also in the fact that the news viewers have a lower understanding and are unfamiliar with each other

.

as to whether it is true that hurricanes in the United States are more serious than typhoons in Asia, I don't think so. For example, the biggest loss in history is

the Atlantic hurricane was Katrina in 25, which caused about 18 deaths and economic losses of $18 billion; As the strongest typhoon Haiyan in the history of

, * * * caused about 6,3 deaths, and more than 1, people were missing, resulting in economic losses of

2.86 billion dollars. Media reports. Everyone is staring at the United States, and its own media is also developed and has global influence. Isn't the news broadcast all about the extremely cold weather in the United States? It may also be that the second generation are all in the United States, so the official media are more concerned.

fourth, the economy of the United States is developed, so it may appear that hurricanes are destructive. If we only look at the economic losses, then the

losses caused by Katrina are 4 to 5 times that of Haiyan. But if you look at the death toll, you will know that the damage of Haiyan is actually more serious, except that the Philippines is much poorer than the United States, so the economic loss seems to be small. As China people, the main concern is the typhoon in China, not the typhoon in Asia. The name of Florida comes from the Latin root, which means "land of flowers". In the impression of Americans, it is also a place where the sun shines all the year round. If we use a familiar metaphor from China, Florida is Hainan Island in the United States.

However, due to the existence of the first island chain, many typhoons

may have landed in the Philippines, Taiwan Province, China and other places before arriving in Chinese mainland, and have weakened, or headed straight for Vietnam or Japan, so there are not many typhoons that can directly attack the mainland. The situation in the United States is different. It takes only a few minutes for a hurricane generated in the North Atlantic to hit the United States, so it may appear that China is less affected.

Hurricane Irma ravaged Florida, and people across the ocean in the southern United States struggled to survive again. It seems that the hurricane < P > in the United States has a different opening way from the typhoon in Asia. Today's article will take a look at why the hurricane in the United States is so fierce in the south.

Many people lament that America is lucky. The Atlantic and Pacific oceans guard the country, and it is difficult for foreign enemies to invade.

But there are times when two oceans can't help America. There is a powerful enemy knocking on the door of the southern United States every year.

this is a hurricane.
