Meteorological departments form synergy for first typhoon in 2020 - China Meteorological Administration
At 8:50 a.m. on June 14, this year’s 2nd typhoon Nuri (tropical storm scale) made landfall in coastal regions of Hailing Island, Yangjiang, Guangdong province, becoming the first typhoon that landed in China this year. Wind and rainfall brought by the typhoon have effectively alleviated high temperature and drought conditions in portions of Guangdong, Guangxi, and Hainan. However, urban waterlogging, mount torrents, and geological hazards incurred by heavy rainfall in some localities should not be neglected and call for elaborate prevention work.
