adalanerd, 8 months ago to hongkong Ufff, the pressure and geopotential gradient over #Soala and #HongKong is impressive. The wind scale is ttly saturated as winds are expected to go above 260kmh... #meteorology Courage for those who're there. 🙏 a zoom over the typhoon, isobaric lines are so close, the labels are not even rendered but by counting them, we can suppose the center is under 920 hPa, which is really low compared to the 990hPa a hundred of kms away. that's a depression... winds are spinning counterclockwise around the center.
