Chapter 730 Eye of the Storm

Hagupit's twelfth-level wind circle landed at Gamai, the northeast corner of Samar Island, about 120 kilometers south of Catanduanes Island, at one o'clock in the evening on June 29. At this time, it is still not considered as Hagupit's real landfall, because according to the definition of typhoon landfall, only when the typhoon's eye lands, it is considered a typhoon's real landfall.

Hagupit's twelfth-level wind circle has a radius of about 100 kilometers, so it will take five hours before the eye of Hagupit actually makes landfall.

However, Hagupit's twelfth-level wind circle did not weaken after landing, and continued to move north-northwest at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour.

Landfall of a super typhoon is a very scary thing, even if the real typhoon core has not yet landed, only the twelfth-level wind circle has begun to land, and the momentum caused is extremely terrifying.

The violent wind and rain raged crazily on everything around, and the dense raindrops hit the wooden boards outside the doors and windows, densely like the hooves of thousands of horses and horses marching forward. The gust of wind with its strange whistling sound completely turned the area into a ghostly creature. This sound sounds extremely frightening, and the timid one might have a heart attack.

The most terrifying thing is the super storm surge brought by strong winds.

Although this kind of storm surge is not as spectacular as yesterday's tsunami, it is still powerful, and this day happened to catch up with the astronomical tide, so driven by the gravity of the moon and strong winds, the coastal areas of several islands in the eastern Philippines have set off The huge waves exceeded ten meters, and the height of the storm surge exceeded seven meters.

This kind of storm surge has once again baptized the coastal areas that have just experienced a tsunami, but it doesn't matter. As the saying goes, if there are too many lice, you are not afraid to bite. The tsunami yesterday has destroyed everything that can be destroyed. Those things that cannot be destroyed are not destroyed by this kind of storm surge.

But this kind of storm surge is not a one-shot deal like a tsunami. This kind of storm surge lasted for a whole day.

After 6 o'clock in the evening, the storm not only did not decrease but grew bigger, which shows that the core of Hagupit is very close to the Philippines.

At dinner time at 6 o'clock in the evening, Yang Jing and Gege were sitting on the dining table eating bread, and the manic storm stopped suddenly, without warning, as if there was an invisible big hand in the sky holding Haig It was like being wiped off from the earth, even the rare sun in the past three or four days was exposed, and there was silence everywhere.

Ge Ge was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed in surprise: Yang Jing, has the typhoon completely passed?

Yang Jing smiled wryly and shook his head, Daughter-in-law, don't be naive, the typhoon never passed, on the contrary, this is the real landfall of the typhoon!

Huh? Now is the real typhoon landing?

Yes, this situation is actually caused by the passing of the eye of the storm. In other words, we are now in the eye of the storm in Hagupit.

Before Yang Jing finished speaking, Chris and the others pushed the door open, Boss, the eye of the storm is coming. We are now in the eye of the storm, and Hagupit has officially landed.

Grid asked puzzledly: What is the eye of the storm? Why does this happen in such a strong typhoon?

Yang Jing stuffed half of the bread in his hand into his mouth, and after taking a sip of water, he gestured and explained: You should know that the typhoon is in a rotating shape, right?

Grid nodded.

Typhoons or hurricanes are tropical cyclones, and tropical cyclones rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere. Yang Jing gestured a counterclockwise circle, During the rotation of tropical cyclones, a The hole, in this hole, except that the air pressure is much lower than outside, the weather in other aspects is very stable. This hole is the eye of the tropical cyclone, just like the center of the vortex.”

Oh, I see. When I looked at the weather forecast, I often saw a black spot in the center of those typhoons or tropical storms. That black spot is the eye, right?

Very correct. Yang Jing nodded in satisfaction, The eye of a tropical storm is roughly in the shape of a circle, with a diameter usually ranging from a few kilometers to several kilometers. There is an eyewall around the eye, and some people also It is called the eye wall, which is a ring-shaped area of ​​severe thunderstorms. The eye wall is the most severe area in the tropical cyclone. The eye surrounded by the eye wall is the most stable area in the entire tropical cyclone. We We are now in the eye of Hagupit!

As a super typhoon, Hagupit has a radius of more than 100 kilometers in its category 12 wind circle, so at around 1:00 noon, the category 12 wind circle has been heading north-northwest for more than five hours after landing The moving Hagupit, whose eye finally made landfall on Catanduanes.

Now, the eye of the super typhoon Hagupit hangs over Yang Jing and the others.

Yang Jing, can we go out and have a look? The diameter of the eye is so big, even if it passes by, it will take at least an hour, right? Can we go out to get some air during this time?

Yang Jing was a little tempted by Ge Ge’s words. To be honest, he had never seen what Typhoon Feng’s eyes looked like. Now he finally had a chance to see the scenery in Typhoon Feng’s eyes. If he went out with his buddies in the future Bragging ratio can also brag for several years.

Chris and the others had never seen this kind of situation before, and both of them were very moved.

Okay! Isn't it just going out! What's the matter? Let's go out and have a look together. Anyway, the main door of the villa is sealed from the inside, just remove the things blocking the main door.

Clark smiled and said, Boss, leave this job to me. I have plenty of strength.

After everyone moved away the big pieces of furniture blocking the main door, they could finally walk out of the villa after being in the house for a whole day.

The view outside is unbelievable. If it wasn't for the dark clouds and rumbling thunder in the distance reminding them that this is actually the eye of a super typhoon, no one would have believed that it was still a violent storm just a few minutes ago.

The sinking sun turned the entire sky into a golden yellow. Although the mountain was still in a mess, the scenery in the mountain was really nothing to say.

A huge wind circle is slowly moving to the northwest. Here you can clearly see thunder, lightning and wind and rain in the eyewall only one or two kilometers away. The rumbling thunder sounds like countless cannons roaring.

Turning his head to look southeast, as far as the eye can see, he can vaguely see the eye wall on the other side. In that far away position, he can still see the lightning. It is said that the eyewall is the area with the worst climate in a typhoon, and this sentence is indeed correct.

Compared with the eye wall where thunder, lightning and wind and rain abound, the wind eye is as quiet as a little girl. There is no wind here, and the air is extremely clear and fresh. The visibility is at least tens of kilometers. This kind of scene has to make everyone admire, this nature is really amazing, if you don't see it with your own eyes, who would have thought that in the center of the most terrifying typhoon, there is such an area called a paradise.

The old housekeeper and the servants in the villa also all came out, all intoxicated by the beautiful scenery.

The Mayon Volcano in the west is already outside the eye of the wind at this time, so the situation of Mayon Volcano at this time cannot be seen from here at all. But judging from such fresh air, Mayon Volcano has obviously been completely tamed by Hagupit.

Boss, this eye is so clean, it really deserves to be the eye of a super typhoon. If it were a typhoon-level tropical cyclone, the eye might not be so clean, and a tropical storm might not even form an eye, right? Chris sighed on the sidelines.

Yang Jing nodded, That's right, it's only this kind of super typhoon that can form such a clean and stable eye. Weaker tropical cyclones really can't form such a good eye.

The eye of the wind is a very stable meteorological structure, so the formation of the eye of the wind requires a lot of energy. A tropical cyclone will only produce a cyclone eye if it reaches the level of a typhoon. If the level of a tropical cyclone is not high enough, the energy in the cyclone will not be able to maintain a stable cyclone eye.

The higher the level of the typhoon, the more stable the eye of the typhoon, and the more stable the weather in the eye of the typhoon. Just like the eye of Hagupit, the weather in the eye of the wind is in a mess. Except for the low air pressure, it is basically a sunny day with no wind.

Of course, some people also judge the typhoon level according to the size of the eye. Many people say that the larger the eye, the lower the typhoon level, and vice versa, the higher the typhoon level. That is the so-called big eyes small wind, small eyes big wind.

In fact, this statement is not correct, at least there is no definite scientific evidence to prove it. Generally speaking, the diameter of the eye of a typhoon is about 40 to 50 kilometers, but this does not mean that the smaller the eye, the higher the level of the typhoon.

For example, Super Typhoon No. 14 Nabi in 2005 was also a Category 5 typhoon, no worse than the current Hagupit, but the diameter of Nacho's eye was as high as 100 kilometers.

And the eye of Hagupit in front of us must have a diameter of at least 40 kilometers by visual inspection. This diameter is actually not small, at least it is similar to the eye of an ordinary typhoon. This is enough to prove that the smaller the eye, the higher the level of the typhoon.

As for the 40-kilometer wind eye, based on Hagupit's moving speed, it would take at least two hours to be covered by the eye wall on the other side. In other words, everyone can enjoy at least two hours of tranquility.

However, after admiring the beautiful scenery for a while, Yang Jing immediately prepared to go to several other wealthy villas that were not submerged by the tsunami to take a stroll. There wasn't much food stored in the villa, and it would take at least forty hours for Hagupit's influence to completely dissipate.

Originally, Yang Jing wanted to wait for the typhoon to pass before going out to look for food, so he might as well take advantage of this rare peace and go out to look for some food. After all, in such a situation, only with food in hand can one not panic.
