There will be heavy rains in Beijing today and tomorrow

The rainfall distribution is more in the east and less in the west. It is expected to affect the morning and evening peaks

　　News from our newspaper (Reporter Zhao Tingting) A reporter from the Beijing Youth Daily learned from the Beijing Meteorological Observatory that there will be heavy rain to heavy rain in Beijing today and tomorrow. During this period, there will be heavy gusts, and the rainfall distribution tends to be more in the east and less in the west.

　　According to Zhao Wei, chief forecaster of the Municipal Meteorological Observatory, this round of rainfall was caused by the combined effects of the high-altitude trough and the low-pressure peripheral cloud system weakened by the typhoon "fireworks".

The rainfall process has the characteristics of long rainfall duration, more rainfall in the east and less in the west, and strong gusts.

　　First of all, the rain lasted for a long time.

Rainfall is expected to begin on the morning of the 29th and gradually increase from southeast to northwest. The apparent rainfall period will be from the afternoon of the 29th to the night, and gradually weaken and end at the night of the 30th.

The whole process will last nearly 48 hours.

　　Secondly, the distribution of rainfall this time is very uneven, with more rainfall in the east and less in the west.

It is estimated that the average rainfall in the city can reach heavy rain to heavy rain; heavy rain in the eastern region and local heavy rain; heavy rain in the west and local heavy rain.

The maximum rain intensity is expected to reach 30-50 mm/hour.

In addition, gusts of wind are strong during rainfall.

The average wind force during rainfall is about 4, with gusts of 6 and 7, and gusts of up to 7 and 8 in the eastern region.

　　Zhao Wei said that the rainfall is closely related to the movement speed and path of the low-pressure system weakened by the typhoon "Fireworks". At present, there are still uncertainties in its movement path and scope of influence.

The Municipal Meteorological Observatory will closely monitor the weather, update and release forecast and warning information in a timely manner, and citizens are invited to pay attention in time.

　　According to Zhang Juan, a meteorological analyst at China Weather Network, due to the good conditions for high-altitude outflow, it plays a role of suction. At the same time, the lower level also has easterly air to supplement energy. The "firework" weakens relatively slowly, and there is still a relatively obvious spiral structure. Rain will continue to be produced in the process, and the impact on our country is far from over.

　　Since July, Beijing has experienced many heavy rainfall processes and large soil water content. Mountainous and shallow mountainous areas have high risks of secondary disasters such as torrents, landslides, collapses, and mudslides. The meteorological department reminds the public to raise awareness of the prevention of heavy rainfall and secondary disasters. , Do not go to dangerous areas, rivers, and areas with hidden geological hazards.

　　The rainfall will affect the morning and evening traffic peaks on the 29th and 30th. The meteorological department reminds the public to arrange travel reasonably.

At the same time, heavy rainfall will cause slippery roads, accumulation of water in low-lying sections, and reduced visibility. Citizens should pay attention to traffic safety when going out.

There are strong wind gusts when it rains, so please don't stay under tall buildings, billboards, temporary structures or big trees.
