强台风昌平逼近台湾,因厄尔尼诺现象增强至超级台风级别。1台湾当局已疏散超过1300人到高地,1全岛大部分地区学校、办公室和股市关闭。2数百班航班被迫取消,12至少1人在海中丧生,数十人至171人受伤。12
气象部门预测台风将于周五至周六对台湾造成严重影响,带来暴雨、巨浪和强风。1据报,台风目前距台湾南部海岸约220公里,1最大风速曾达298公里/小时,1当前风力约190公里/小时。1台湾中央气象署署长陆湖晨指出:"如果台风在台湾东北角减速,其影响将持续更长时间。"1台湾东北地区预计降雨量将达90厘米。2
台风影响范围已扩及东亚多地。1日本冲绳县约8400户停电,2日本四家航空公司共取消160班以上航班,2恰美成为日本今年第30场台风,为2013年以来首次超过30场。2联合国周三指出今年厄尔尼诺现象"超出预期范围",1预计将在12月达到峰值。1
Typhoon Champi is approaching Taiwan's northeastern coast with destructive force, intensified by El Niño conditions.12 The storm has already caused significant disruption across the island and the broader East Asian region, with authorities implementing emergency preparedness measures as the system draws closer.
The typhoon's intensity has been exceptional, with maximum sustained winds reaching 298 kilometers per hour (185 miles per hour) earlier in the week, equivalent to a Category 5 hurricane strength.1 Current wind speeds are recorded at approximately 190 kilometers per hour, with the storm located about 220 kilometers from Taiwan's southern coast.1 The system's influence extends across a radius of roughly 320 kilometers.1
Taiwan has taken extensive precautions to minimize casualties and damage. Over 1,300 people have been evacuated to higher ground,1 while authorities have closed schools and businesses across most of the island.2 In 21 of Taiwan's 22 counties and cities, work and classes have been suspended.2 The stock market also ceased trading on Friday.2 According to reports, at least one person has died and 171 people have been injured, with 1,000 evacuated.2
Transportation networks face severe disruption, with hundreds of flights canceled.12 Japanese authorities report that four major airlines have canceled over 160 flights,2 while approximately 8,400 households in Okinawa prefecture have lost power.2 Meteorological authorities anticipate heavy rainfall of up to 90 centimeters for northeastern Taiwan, accompanied by destructive winds and massive waves.2 Central Weather Administration Director Lu Hu-chen stated: "If the typhoon slows down over Taiwan's northeastern corner, its impact will persist for an extended period."1
The frequency of such powerful typhoons reflects broader climate patterns. Champi marks Japan's 30th typhoon of the year, the first time this threshold has been exceeded since 2013,2 a trend attributed to exceptionally strong El Niño conditions.2 The United Nations reported on Wednesday that this year's El Niño phenomenon has "exceeded expected ranges,"1 with the phenomenon expected to reach peak intensity in December.1
