新西兰50年一遇的大台风，没有吹到奥克兰，倒是把丰盛湾弄得大停电。
新西兰的气象局在今天上午的警告文章题目是BATTEN DOWN THE HATCHES。
意思就是做好准备，放下舱盖。
HATCH 舱盖，如下图。
BATTEN DOWN 放下。
台风来了，就要做好准备了。
近一个月，新西兰北岛的雨水非常多，基本上把一年的量全下了。
特别要说一下，在新西兰和澳大利亚，台风用的词是cyclone，在中国用的词是typhoon， 也就是台风的音译。在美国用的词是hurricane.
都是这货。
Hurricanes, cyclones, and typhoons are all the same weather phenomenon; we just use different names for these storms in different places. In the Atlantic and Northeast Pacific, the term “hurricane” is used. The same type of disturbance in the Northwest Pacific is called a “typhoon” and “cyclones” occur in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean.
新西兰气象局的文章如下：
MetService is advising New Zealanders to prepare for Cyclone Cook which is expected to make landfall in an area from Coromandel Peninsula to Western Bay of Plenty around 6pm Thursday, travelling south through the North Island and is expected to track over central New Zealand around midnight Thursday, then pass just east of Banks Peninsula around 6am Friday, before continuing south.
Although fast-moving, Cyclone Cook will be destructive and MetService Expert Meteorologists have issued Severe Wind Warnings for the whole of the North Island apart from Northland which is on a Severe Wind Watch. These warnings are in addition to those for heavy rain.
"Given the current track of Cyclone Cook, our concern is for Coromandel Peninsula, Bay of Plenty, Auckland and Waikato where we are expecting wind gusts of 150km/h or more and heavy downpours of rain," said Communications Meteorologist Lisa Murray, "in addition, this system will also cause rain and damaging wind for the rest of the North Island as it moves south, and will then impact eastern areas of the South Island."
As Cyclone Cook approaches north-facing coastal areas from Northland to Hicks Bay, people should also prepare for large swells which will contribute to coastal inundation and erosion.
Ms Murray warns, "This is an extreme weather event and people should not take this warning likely. Please consider securing property, moving animals to safety, and cancelling or postponing travel where possible."
Don't take it likely. 不要不当回事。
People should be prepared in case of loss of power or becoming isolated due to road closure and are advised to listen to their local Civil Defence for updates. Many places are already getting heavy rain from a Low and its preceding trough which came from the Tasman Sea. Cyclone Cook is expected to arrive at the tail end of that rain, with little or no reprieve in between.
"Soil is already saturated after last week's rain event, so, add the rain from the Tasman Low and then the wind and rain from Cyclone Cook and you have the ingredients for large scale damage such as fallen trees, landslips and rapidly-rising rivers and streams."
