Around the world | An exceptional amount of rain that Hurricane Jimmy will bring to Taiwan during its impact period may reach 1,500 liters of water per square meter.

Arabia Weather - The direct effects of Hurricane Jimmy have begun to hit Taiwan, as it will bring with it huge amounts of rain exceeding 1,000 mm in some areas. These heavy rains are expected to continue over the next few days, accompanied by strong winds exceeding 230 km/hour. Local authorities warn of the dangers of floods and landslides, calling on residents to stay in their homes and take the necessary precautions to protect themselves and their property.

Huge amounts of rain will be brought by the hurricane today and in the coming days, and its total may reach 1,500 mm

According to the latest advanced computer modeling outputs at the Arabian Weather Center, numerical models that sense the locations and amounts of rainfall predict that Taiwan will witness rainfall that may exceed 1,000 and perhaps reach 1,500 mm within a short period due to the passage of a powerful tropical cyclone, Hurricane Jimmy. According to experts at the Arab Weather Center, this amount is considered very exceptional, as some areas may receive more than half of their annual amount of rain within a few days.

Rainfall exceeding 1000 mm, what does it mean on the ground?

Meteorological specialists at the Arabian Weather Center explained that the amounts of rain predicted by computer simulation models mean that the surface of the Earth in Taiwan receives huge amounts of water. If the amount of rain is 1500 mm, it means that 1 liter of water will be received per square meter, and the amount of rain 1500 mm is equivalent to 1500 liters of water per square meter.

This large amount of rain can lead to flooding, especially if the soil is unable to absorb water quickly enough. These quantities can also cause soil erosion, affecting agriculture and plants, and increasing the risk of landslides. Roads and buildings can also be greatly affected by floods and landslides, in addition to agricultural crops being affected, damaged and submerged in water, leading to losses in agricultural production.

God knows.
