What impact will Category 12 Typhoon Hygos have on Zhuhai when it lands?

The arrival of Category 12 Typhoon Higos in Zhuhai will have an adverse impact on Zhuhai’s transportation and local economy.

Yesterday, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center upgraded Typhoon Higos to a tropical depression. At about 8 o'clock that day, Hygoss upgraded from a tropical storm to a tropical storm to a final severe tropical storm in one day, and formed a typhoon at 20 o'clock today. This year's No. 7 Typhoon Hygos made landfall on the coast of Jinwan District, Zhuhai City, Guangdong Province. The central wind force of this year's Typhoon Hygos reached the level of a Category 12 hurricane when it made landfall. This situation rarely happened in the past. Due to the strong landing of Hygoss this time, buildings in Zhuhai were damaged.

With the arrival of Typhoon Hygos, coastal cities will usher in a new round of heavy rainfall. The sea waves and fog will be large, and visibility will be very small, making it impossible for ships to travel normally. The fishermen lost their economic income, and the flooding caused the farmed organisms in the farmers' ponds to overflow with the flood, making a year's hard work all in vain. Coastal cities such as Zhuhai have relatively large populations and relatively small amounts of land, so local buildings are generally relatively tall. When Typhoon Hygos makes landfall, some will not be able to withstand the strong winds, causing houses to collapse and people's safety to be threatened.

Judging from the radar puzzle, the frontal attack range of Category 12 Typhoon Higos is in some cities near the Pearl River Estuary, such as Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Zhuhai, Hong Kong, Macau, etc., which are the places with the greatest wind force.

When the typhoon did not make landfall before, Zhuhai and other coastal cities had already been affected by heavy rains. The typhoon this time is even stronger than in previous years. The Central Meteorological Administration has issued typhoon warning signals and trajectory maps after the typhoon makes landfall, so that citizens can get the most accurate information in the fastest time and can do things in a short time. Make appropriate defense preparations. Any water work by fishermen at sea must be stopped, all boats must return to the harbor to take shelter from the wind, and the boats must be fixed to prevent them from being lost in strong winds.

In extremely severe weather conditions, prepare enough supplies, minimize outings, and seek help in time if you encounter an accident.
