Why was the big rainstorm in Guangzhou absent? Guangzhou weather: Guangzhou is covered by a "knot"

This week, the whole of Guangdong has been covered by heavy rainfall. As early as last week, the government started issuing rainstorm warnings to the community and began sending out reminders to people, warning them to take rain gear outside and to pay special attention to heavy rainfall. Many cities in Guangdong sent out SMS warnings of heavy rain to their citizens, such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen, to the extent that people were scared of the storm. After all, come early and leave early. However, people in Guangzhou waited for a long day and there was never a rainstorm. Did the rainstorm forget about Guangzhou?

On the internet, many netizens have already started complaining that the weather forecast for Guangzhou is so inaccurate that the promised rainstorm is not there, leaving a bunch of poor watchers who are expecting it. Some netizens even took time off work to escape the downpour, only to end up taking a lonely time off and having to stay at home for the day, enjoying the faint sound of rain and the indescribable aggravation. As a result, the topic of "Why is the rainstorm absent in Guangzhou" was washed up in the hot search thanks to the efforts of Guangzhou citizens. The weather in Guangzhou had no choice but to respond.

It turns out that Guangzhou is protected by a "mysterious boundary". The rain is sparse in the south, north and west of Guangzhou, but only Guangzhou is very gentle, fearing that more rain will disturb the people of Guangzhou. This mysterious boundary is not a defensive boundary formed by magic in fiction, but a topic in meteorological science - the fall zone.

A falling rain area is where it rains. As you can see from the map above, those grey areas in Guangdong are the areas where there are no rainstorms, and Guangzhou is one of them. Guangzhou has three neighbouring areas that all have strong rainstorms, so Guangzhou is very lucky not to be in a falling zone. After all, heavy rainstorms make travel difficult and are accompanied by dangers that make getting to work and school risky.

Zones are judged by the weather, but heavy rainfall is predicted when an area is in very favourable conditions for rainfall. However, actual conditions can often change. Some special influences may cause the rainfall fall zone to deviate, thus making the storm inaccessible. It is as if this area forms a boundary around which all rainstorms have to detour, as is the case in Guangzhou.

As things stand now, will the crisis of heavy rainfall in Guangzhou be lifted? According to data released by the Meteorological Bureau, the region will be in a favourable precipitation environment in the future, which means there is still a chance of heavy rainfall in Guangzhou, probably tonight or tomorrow morning. Therefore, we should not take it lightly, let alone assume that it will not rain. As soon as the barrier is broken in Guangzhou, it will follow, so we still need to plan.

April is already the peak of the flood season and there will be more precipitation, especially dangerous with these fast and furious rainstorms. If the rainfall is too heavy, it is likely to cause flooding in the city and seriously affect people's lives. Therefore, in the face of heavy rainfall, we should prepare for a rainy day. As individuals, we should always reinforce the doors and windows of our homes and secure the flowers and plants on our balconies or move them inside in case a violent storm blows away the potted plants after we fall asleep at night.

The weather forecast is not 100% accurate and on time, but it is still a good guide. In this stormy weather atmosphere, trust the weather forecast to be right.
