As typhoon'Babi', the 8th typhoon, accompanied by strong winds that ranks as the fifth highest in history, is concerned about damage from strong winds.

The Meteorological Administration predicted that from this evening, very strong winds with a maximum instantaneous wind speed of up to 60 meters per second may blow across Jeju Island from this evening.

The intensity of the typhoon is classified by the maximum wind speed in the center.

▶25~33m per second is'medium' ▶33~44m is'strong' ▶44~54m is'very strong' ▶If it is more than 54m, it is'super strong'.

If the wind blows at 25m/sec, roofs and roof tiles can fly away, and at 30m/sec, a poor house can collapse.

At 35m/sec, a train can tip over, and a strong wind of 40m/sec can blow not only people but also large rocks.

The Meteorological Administration predicted that Typhoon Barbie will become strong at a'very river' state with a central pressure of 945 hectopascals and a maximum wind speed of 45m per second near the center around 9 o'clock tonight, and it will remain'very river' until 9 o'clock tomorrow.

Typhoon'Ringling', which passed the Korean peninsula last year, recorded a maximum instantaneous wind speed of 54.4m per day, ranking fifth in history.

Accordingly, the government operated the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasure Headquarters to respond to typhoon Bobby, urging the people to prepare thoroughly.

According to the Ministry of Public Administration and Security's'Gold Wind National Action Manual', it is important to prepare in advance before strong winds come.
When the strong wind forecast takes effect, you should refrain from going out and check the weather information from time to time.
First of all, it's a good idea to use tape in the house to fix it so that there is no gap between the window and the window frame.

At this time, it is more effective to fix the window frame rather than attaching an X-shaped tape to the window glass.

It is also important to fix outdoor facilities such as signboards in advance.

In addition, as strong wind accidents occur frequently around construction sites these days, avoid near construction sites, and move materials that are easy to fly away from geolseul sites to a safe place.

If you are in a strong wind-affected zone, it is recommended not to go near windows that may be damaged in your home.

Avoid falling under trees or poles and move into a safe building.

In coastal areas, it is better not to go around the beach, docks, or coastal roads.
