Recently, tornadoes have entered a period of high incidence!
In South China, generally speaking, Guangdong and Hainan are provinces with high incidence of tornadoes, while Guangxi is relatively rare. Tornadoes mainly occur in the flood season, which can be roughly divided into two categories. One category is tornadoes in the pre-flood season, which are produced in the background of the westerly weather system and often accompanied by thunderstorms and strong winds; The other is the tornado in the late flood season, which mainly occurs in the background of tropical cyclones.
On July 2, 2022, Typhoon Siam made landfall in Guangdong, causing at least six tornadoes, namely, in Chaoan District, Chaozhou, Guangdong, Nan ‘ao, Shantou and Shishan, Foshan on July 2, and in Huangpu, Guangzhou, Sanshui, Foshan and Huadu, Guangzhou on the morning of July 4.
On October 4th, 2015, the tornado intensity around Typhoon Rainbow reached EF3, which was the strongest tropical cyclone tornado recorded in South China. On April 13, 2019, a tornado occurred in Xuwen, Zhanjiang, with an intensity of EF3, making it the strongest westerly tornado recorded in South China.
Tornadoes in South China are mostly caused by tropical cyclones. Statistics show that in 2021, Guangdong and Hainan are the regions with the highest incidence of tropical cyclones and tornadoes in China. This is not only related to the fact that the region is most affected by tropical cyclones, but also related to the geographical environment of the region, which is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, with many flat areas and many trumpet-shaped topography (such as the Pearl River Delta Plain and Leizhou Peninsula).
