China News Service, Shanghai, September 13 (Reporter Li Shuzheng) On the morning of the 13th, the 14th typhoon "Sandu" (strong typhoon class) this year began to affect Shanghai.

Storms and rains struck, more than 80% of flights at the two major airports in Shanghai were cut and cancelled, and many high-speed rail lines in the Yangtze River Delta were suspended.

  At 6 o'clock on the 13th, the center of Typhoon Sundu was about 300 kilometers away from Shanghai.

According to the forecast by the Meteorological Department, the center of the "Sando" typhoon will pass or land in eastern Shanghai from the evening to the night of the 13th.

  According to Zhang Ling, chief forecaster of the Central Meteorological Observatory, the typhoon "Sun Du" has the characteristics of rapid increase in the initial stage of formation, long maintenance time of super typhoon level, compact structure, mutual influence of multiple typhoons, and low speed of offshore deceleration.

  From the tropical storm level to the super typhoon level, typhoon "Santo" only took 21 hours.

According to meteorological monitoring, "Sun Du" and this year's No. 2 typhoon "Suleki" have been listed as the "Wind King" so far this year.

  In addition to its great power and momentum, "Sandu" is still a typhoon that "does not take the usual path": it brushes the northeastern part of Taiwan Island and pounces on the Chinese mainland, Zhejiang and Shanghai may face the invasion of "first-hand typhoon".

  Similar to Typhoon No. 6 this year, "Fireworks", "Sandu" also has the characteristic of slowing down offshore.

Compared with the "fireworks" that stayed in Hangzhou Bay for about 20 hours, the "procrastination" of "Sandu" is more obvious.

According to the Central Meteorological Observatory, it is expected that "Sandu" will stay longer in the sea and areas near Hangzhou Bay.

  Typhoon "Santo"'s less maneuver comes from the "pinching attack" of high pressure.

According to Zhang Ling, starting from the 14th, "Chandu" will be surrounded by two high pressures, namely the western Pacific subtropical high and the continental high. The guiding airflow is weak, so "Chandu" is prone to whirling in a small area.

  "Chan Du" was angry, and Shen Cheng was ready to fight.

Since 18:00 on the 12th, the Shanghai typhoon yellow warning signal, thunder and lightning yellow warning signal, and torrential rain blue warning signal have been high.

  The Shanghai Airport Group said that due to the impact of Typhoon Sundo, the traffic capacity of Shanghai Pudong Airport and Hongqiao Airport will drop significantly from midnight on the 13th, and more than 80% of the inbound and outbound flights will be reduced and cancelled.

  Affected by typhoon "Santo", many railways in the Yangtze River Delta were suspended.

China Railway Shanghai Bureau Group Co., Ltd. said: On the 13th, all trains of the Hangzhou-Ningbo High-speed Railway and Ningbo-Taiwan-Wenzhou High-speed Railway EMUs will be suspended; All passenger trains to Suzhou were suspended.

  The high winds and rains also affected the traffic in the city.

According to the Shanghai Metro Department, from the beginning of operation on the 13th, the Shanghai Metro Line 2 East Extension, Line 5, Line 16, Pujiang Line, and Maglev Line will all be suspended.

  At the same time, all outdoor tourist attractions, outdoor areas in tourist attractions, and playgrounds in Shanghai will be closed on the 13th and 14th.

The Shanghai Municipal Education Commission also issued a notice that in the afternoon on the 13th and throughout the day on the 14th, kindergartens in Shanghai primary and secondary schools will stop education and teaching activities, and nursery schools will stop nursery education activities.
