Typhoons only happen in summer and autumn

Rumors about typhoons are really varied and hard to guard against. Some of these rumors seem sensational, but in fact have no scientific basis.

Typhoons only happen in summer and autumn.

First, let's take a look at the statement "typhoons cause floods". This statement is not accurate. Although typhoons can cause floods, not all typhoons cause floods. In fact, some typhoons may gradually weaken after making landfall and do not cause floods. In addition, even if typhoons cause floods, we cannot rely solely on them to solve this problem. We need to take a variety of measures to prevent floods, including strengthening drainage systems, building levees, etc.

Secondly, some people think that typhoons change the weather. This is not true. Typhoons mainly affect climatic conditions, not the weather. When typhoons pass by, they create storm surges that change sea level, but this is a short-term phenomenon and has no effect on long-term climate.

Finally, there are concerns that typhoons can harm crops. However, this is also rare. Although a typhoon can affect the growth cycle of crops, it does not directly damage the crops themselves. In addition, farmers can reduce this risk by planting crops that are resistant to wind.

In general, there are many rumors about typhoons, but we need to realize that these rumors often lack scientific basis. Therefore, we should avoid believing them as much as possible, and should use scientific methods to understand the impact of typhoons in order to better deal with natural disasters.
