Economic Observation Network According to the CCTV news client, Typhoon Bawei continues to approach China. At 3:00 pm today, it has entered the 24-hour warning line in China and is less than 900 kilometers away from the border between Zhejiang and Fujian. The outer spiral cloud system is the first to affect China's coastal waters.

Entering the 24-hour warning line means that the typhoon will have a significant impact on our country within 24 hours. After entering the 24-hour warning line, the meteorological department will monitor the typhoon hourly, closely monitor its movements, and report the actual situation of the typhoon at any time.

The continuous influx of dry air caused the intensity of "Bawei" to decrease to typhoon level (40 meters per second). Many people may think that as the wind weakens, the impact will also weaken, but for a super large typhoon like "Bawei", a decrease in central intensity does not mean a reduction in rainfall power.

At present, the "Bawei" circulation is still very large, with a continuously expanding body, and can be called a super large typhoon: at 15:00 today, the diameter exceeded 1500 kilometers, the radius of the seventh level wind circle reached 500 kilometers, the cloud system area was about 1.58 million square kilometers, and the volume far exceeded that of ordinary typhoons. Compared to small-sized typhoons, super large typhoons come with massive water vapor reserves, and their ability to produce rain, coverage, and duration of impact should not be underestimated. Even if they are thousands of miles away, they may still be affected.

According to the latest forecast from the Central Meteorological Observatory, "Bawei" is gradually approaching the coast of Zhejiang and Fujian, and will make landfall along the coast from Wenling, Zhejiang to Xiapu, Fujian in the early morning of the 12th (strong typhoon or typhoon level). After landing, it will move northwestward and gradually weaken in intensity.

The wind and rain brought by "Bawei" this weekend will significantly intensify, with rainfall mainly consisting of bulk rainfall and long-distance transportation rainfall. The Central Meteorological Observatory predicts that in the next three days, due to the combined impact of the southwest monsoon and typhoon "Bawei", there will be heavy to rainstorm in Taiwan Island, East China, the north central part of North China, Northeast China, and the eastern part of Northwest China, heavy rainstorm in some regions, and local extremely heavy rainstorm, of which the cumulative rainfall in southeast Zhejiang and northeast Fujian will be 500 to 600 mm, and that in Taiwan Island can exceed 1000 mm; Locally in the northeast of Beijing and Hebei, it can reach 300-350 millimeters.

Typhoon Bawei will bring very obvious wind and rain processes to our country. Please plan your itinerary reasonably, avoid going out during heavy rainfall periods, and pay attention to travel safety.

In terms of temperature, due to the dual control of subtropical high pressure and the sinking airflow outside the "Bawei" area, many places outside the rainfall areas in central and eastern China have entered a mode of high temperature and stuffiness. Today, the high temperature range reached the peak of this round, with temperatures in large areas from the Huang Huai region to northern South China hitting a new high this year, and most of them were hot and humid, with perceived temperatures far exceeding actual temperatures.

In the next few days, with the increase of rainfall, the high temperature range in the eastern coastal areas will slightly shrink. However, in areas with weaker rainfall, the highest temperature will still be around 33 ℃, which is still hot and humid. Everyone still needs to take measures to prevent heatstroke.
