Chapter 787: Super Typhoon

Starry Plains.

The number of people in the live broadcast room rose from 5 million in the afternoon to 7240,000, apparently because they knew that the typhoon was coming, and attracted some viewers, so that the monotonous picture could be tolerated.

At this point, the number of live broadcasters required for the task is no longer a problem.

Bi Fang was also nervous in his heart, and he couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, so he simply kept the live broadcast on.

It's just that there is a more unfortunate thing that happened today, and the situation is even more difficult.

There is not enough food!

There is also one less water collector!

It has long been clear that there is one less Bi Fang in the water collector, because it is something that has been clear three days ago.

At the beginning of the volcanic surfing, in addition to the connection was almost completely broken, some of the ship's supplies also fell off, which was something that could not be helped.

Although it will be fixed with hemp rope every time it is used up, it is not strange to drop something in such a fierce situation three days ago, and there are two water devices, which are quite efficient, and one is a backup, and it is still enough without one.

But most of the food was destroyed......

Bi Fang looked at the moldy shark patty, rubbed it with his hands, and a sour and unpleasant smell wafted out.

Or was it because of the volcano, maybe earlier, because of the storm?

Whether it was a storm or a volcanic eruption, the Viking's hull was flooded at that time, even if the food had been stored as closed as possible, it was still impossible to avoid some spoilage, and the weather was hot in the past three days, so it was faster.

Bi Fang was not unprepared for these things, after recovering his strength, the first priority was to escape from the area affected by the volcanic eruption, rowing for most of the day, after all, compared to food, it is more important to get out of danger as soon as possible.

When the food parcel was opened and inspected in the evening, it was found that it was partially waterlogged, but there was no way to dry it, and by the next day, some of the food had been destroyed, and the process was still ongoing.

Flooded, and near the volcano, it is likely to contain some unknown bacteria.

An underwater volcano eruption could wipe out all nearby life forms, but it could also be accompanied by the emergence of some powerful bacteria.

In 2014, a scientific expedition attempted to study Mount Tagoro in the Canary Islands, 130 meters below sea level.

When Italian and Spanish scientists use robotic submarines to detect, they are presented with something very strange.

They found strange sights on the volcano, and all of them saw those things for the first time.

A very rare, very long white filament forms a very picturesque covering, which covers the seabed with a huge woolly silk mat of about two thousand square meters.

This white-haired microorganism was later named "Venus's Hair".

The reason for this is that two years ago there was a volcanic eruption that reshaped the 9 square kilometers of seabed.

But even so, Bi Fang still had a glimmer of hope and dried it the next day, but it wasn't until today that green hairs grew on the shark patties, and he was really sentenced to death, and everything was over.

[What should I do?] I don't think I have enough to eat! 】

[How many packs are left?] 】

[The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late and encountered a head wind]

"There are still about twenty kilograms left, which is quite enough, just to save some."

Bi Fang counted the remaining supplies and made an estimate.

Eggs can't be put in one basket, and people with a little common sense know this, and Bi Fang will not wrap all the food together.

Basically, there is one bag for every 20 kilograms, a total of five, which means that the contents of four bags are broken, and the damage rate is extremely alarming.

A 50-kilogram adult who eats 1,500 to 2,000 kcal a day will maintain his current weight, about eight taels of food a day.

Bi Fang has a strong physique, more than 80 kilograms, and he consumes a lot of physical strength every day, and he can eat one kilogram a day, which has more than doubled.

It had only been ten days since the voyage, and according to the original forty-day share, at least thirty kilograms of food would have been required, but now a third of the vacancies were missing.

Nemo Point is pitiful because of its lack of creatures, and it's not a problem that can be solved with great skill.

However, the nature of the shark patty itself is similar to that of compression, without the slightest moisture, twenty kilograms, can also be regarded as thirty kilograms.

But this kind of situation is just right, there is no possibility of supplementation, and there is no way back, which makes people feel a little less secure, especially in the case of an imminent typhoon.

[Fifteen centimeters without a head to give the anchor meat and bones *66 - airdrop materials to the anchor, don't be afraid, we will accompany you]

[Mu Wangye gave the anchor meat and bones *1000 - I will also airdrop some]

After re-counting the materials, Bi Fang wrapped the remaining empty bags that had been idle on the last bag of materials, trying not to have any accidents.

If this bag is also soaked in water and finally moldy due to the weather, then this crossing can basically come to an end.

In the first half of the night, Bi Fang did not fall asleep, just to prepare for the arrival of a tropical cyclone.

In fact, Bi Fang was skeptical of the typhoon mentioned in the barrage, and he felt that these people might be mistaken......

Tropical cyclones, tropical storms, typhoons, most people are stupid and can't tell the difference.

Normally, this should be a progressive relationship, that is, cyclones are weaker than storms, and storms are weaker than typhoons.

A tropical cyclone with less intensity is not yet a typhoon, and it does not form until it reaches a certain intensity.

Internationally, tropical cyclones are divided into tropical depressions with a maximum wind speed of 6~7, that is, 10.8-17.1 m/s.

Tropical storm, maximum wind speed 8~9, 17.2~24.4m/s.

What is stronger than a storm will become a typhoon, and each has its own name.

Tropical cyclones are so common in the Pacific Ocean that there are too many typhoon seasons to count each year, and there are fewer tropical storms, but there are also a few, 19 last year and 23 the year before.

The reason why Bi Fang felt that this time was not a typhoon was because he didn't feel anything, and so far, the wind and waves were too small.

A tropical cyclone is a cyclonic circulation that occurs over the sea in tropical and subtropical regions and is one of the most destructive weather systems in the geophysical environment.

Severe tropical cyclones not only form strong winds and waves, but are also often accompanied by heavy rains and storm surges, causing serious disasters.

It is true that some viewers have read the meteorological description, saying that it is just a tropical cyclone, but this also makes Bi Fang uncertain.

This is because in some places, such as Taishui Bend and Yueben, tropical cyclones with sustained winds of 17.2 metres per second or more are directly assigned to their centres, including tropical storms, severe tropical storms and typhoons as defined by the World Meteorological Organization, all of which are called typhoons.

Officially, the term "typhoon" even refers directly to the tropical cyclone itself.

This is like the scene when Qin Shi Huang did not unify weights and measures, and almost every country has its own statement......

The typhoon in the South Pacific is difficult to affect the northern hemisphere, so there will not be too much meteorological data released.....

vertex

As for why it has been named Harold, it is because tropical storms actually have names, not only typhoons.

It wasn't until the second half of the night, when the wind suddenly blew and the sea was rough, even more exaggerated than during the storm, that Bi Fang realized that things were not simple.

This wind ...... It's kind of outrageous.

It turns out that there are indeed capable people in the comment area.

[I've seen the meteorological satellite image, when the tropical cyclone passes over the archipelagic country of Vanuatu in the South Pacific, its core cloud area becomes unusually dense and compact, and the central eye becomes deep and round, which is a manifestation of its gradual strengthening to its peak under favorable water temperature conditions and atmospheric circulation conditions!] 】

[Boss! The elder taught me to watch typhoons! 】

[It can basically be confirmed that it is a typhoon, that is, the wind speed exceeds 80, and it is very likely to be a super typhoon.....]

[But the good news is that this typhoon route did not completely pass through Nemo Point, or rather, it had an impact, but it only wiped one side, I don't know where Fang Shen is now, but it should be good news, right?] 】

[The front row is watching the elder! 】

Bi Fang naturally understands this, and he also knows that if the weather map is really like this, then what the other party said is indeed true.

I sailed for ten days, and I had already walked half the distance, at least 13,400 kilometers, and I was not close to Nemo Point, but not far away.

It's a big deal.

It's not all bad, though.

Bi Fang looked at the bulging sails and realized something.

This time it's actually a tailwind!

The Southern Hemisphere cyclone is clockwise, and Vanuatu is located close to Fiji.

From the Mercator projection map, which is the most common map of the world, the country is about a little higher to the right of Lesser Villah.

That is, to the left of the Nemo point.

Bifang was in the middle of Point Nemo and Vanuatu at this time.

The clockwise cyclone, just like an invisible big hand holding the canoe, flung it fiercely in the direction of Nemo Point, and it can even be said to be a perfect fit!

After another two hours, the sky was bright.

New news has arrived.

[The Joint Typhoon Warning Center believes that it has strengthened to a strong wind speed of 70 m/s in one fell swoop, with a wind force of more than 17 or more, which is comparable to a super typhoon of the highest standard in China!] 】

[The report of the Central Meteorological Observatory pointed out that the maximum wind near the center of Tropical Cyclone Harold at around 18 o'clock this afternoon was 17 (61 m/s, equivalent to China's super typhoon level), and the minimum pressure at the center was 924 hPa. 】

[Judging from the forecasts of the Fiji Meteorological Bureau, the JTWC, and even the GFS, Super Typhoon Harold will gradually move towards the southeast in the next few days. Moreover, judging from the direction of the path, Category 16 Storm Harold approached Warrouatu roughly on the afternoon of the 6th, and then began to make landfall in the country from west to east, and then moved east. 】

[I posted the original text directly, Fang Shen should understand ......]

[I don't understand, I don't know where this country is. 】

Bi Fang, who controlled the sails in the sea, breathed a sigh of relief: "It can probably be understood that the typhoon is approaching us, and it will be more and more difficult in the next few days!" ”

Category 17 super typhoon!

Bi Fang remembered that there had never been such a big typhoon this year.

This special mother is still a "wind king"!

There's a beast chasing after you.

Thinking of this, Bi Fang didn't dare to slack off and continued to control the side and gallop.

Now it can be said that it is a tailwind, and then the wind is speeding, and when it is really close, it will be over.

A typhoon is an extremely large system of water vapor clouds, which is completely a "pump" and has a huge impact on the weather system.

Heavy rainstorms, and even extremely heavy rainstorms are very common, which can affect more than 3 days, which can be called "super fierce typhoon wind and rain".

And it's easy to cause a tornado on land, and this thing turns into a waterspout when it's out there.

The formation of waterspouts is inseparable from favorable atmospheric environmental conditions, among which strong unstable energy and sufficient water vapor, as well as strong vertical wind shear in the lower layers, are favorable conditions for triggering the occurrence of waterspouts, and these conditions are easier to meet in the context of typhoon circulation.

Bi Fang's little arms and legs, how can they withstand the toss of a waterspout?

It is the Wind Overlord of the Sea, which can suck seawater into the air at a height of several kilometers, forming a column of water that connects the sea and the sky.

And it also moves while rotating, which is extremely strong, and will cause great damage to ships and marine life at sea, and it will follow up like a meat grinder when you enter.

Run, hurry up.

Bi Fang, who was about to be bitten by the typhoon, once again launched the Dafa of running away and moved at high speed on the sea.

The only thing to worry about now is whether the mast will hold up.

If you're lucky, it won't take you forty days at all.

Thirty days is enough!

Ten more days would be a great help and room for relief for the rest of your trip to the Sahara!

The Spectator Gate also witnessed what it means to be a high-intensity sailing in the next two days.

Bi Fang hardly sleeps, or rather sleeps, but sleeps very little, almost only three to four hours a day, and then travels day and night.

The winds are getting stronger and the difficulty of navigating is skyrocketing.

The waves on the sea are also higher than one wave, which is thrilling to watch.

The most dangerous time, Bi Fang even saw a waterspout rise hundreds of meters away!

The base of the cumulonimbus cloud stretched out to the surface of the sea, and the funnel-shaped black cloud and the intense whirlwind that accompanied it let out a terrible whimper.

When it reaches the surface of the sea, it sucks up an amazing column of water.

What the audience saw was a tornado followed by a large black cloud in the sky at one end, and plunged into the sea at one end.

At the junction, a large cloud of sea water gushed and was white.

It's like a python in the air!

And the waterspout moved extremely fast, and everywhere it went, it roared like thunder, and it was as strong as a group of airplanes passing at low altitude.

Perhaps it is due to the fact that some parts of the vortex have winds that exceed the speed of sound, thus creating shock waves of small amplitude.

Fortunately, its existence was not long, only a dozen minutes, the destructive power was strong, but the scope of influence was not large, and it did not bring much danger, but it also impressed everyone.

Bi Fang was even more afraid.

When a waterspout first forms, it is transparent and barely visible, but it forms a whirlpool on the surface of the water. As the water vapor increases, the waterspout gradually forms a visible outline.

This time, it was his instinctive warning, coupled with the observation of the ripple map, that he avoided it in advance.

This is also further proof that the typhoon behind Bi Fang is biting tighter and tighter.
