Typhoons, which are usually formed in summer and autumn, are typical natural disasters that strike Taiwan about 5 times in average every year. Unlike tornados or hurricanes which cause disasters mainly by their strong wind, typhoons usually carry a huge amount of water onto the land, sometimes coupled with strong wind as well. Hence, typhoons usually cause serious floods. Furthermore, the vegetation in Taiwan is not protected well and landslides are very likely to occur whenever typhoons bring much water. Nevertheless, typhoons can also fill up the dams so that there will be enough water storage for future usage. Despite of these serious issues, some students or office workers like strong typhoons since it is likely that strong wind enforce the government to announce suspension of schools and offices. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.109.227.99
