Chapter 198 A Tentacle

On the first day of March, a coastal province issued a warning for the first severe convection this year.

Prior to this, the local meteorological department had issued relevant warnings, but this warning was more detailed.

The occurrence of hail caused by strong convective weather in some areas has adverse effects on local spring sowing production and outdoor activities. Fortunately, early warning has taken place and local precautions have been taken.

Afterwards, many videos shot by local residents were exposed on the Internet.

In the picture, the pedestrians who were avoiding the hail hurriedly found a place to hide, and then they all hurriedly took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

When the camera turned around, eight out of ten people were "the type who doesn't rush to take out their mobile phones when something happens", and the remaining two were foodies.

Regarding the videos of various meteorological disasters caused by strong convective weather on the Internet, Feng Yi said——

"It's not me! It has nothing to do with me!"

This is not a blame-shifting, this is really not his fault.

This is what Director He emphasized during the meeting. Climate fluctuations were predicted last year and warnings have been issued long ago.

However, we can only predict possible fluctuations, but we cannot predict the exact time or events that will occur. We can only make adequate preparations in advance.

Perfect predictions do not exist, and the laws of nature are still not fully understood by people.

Moreover, climate forecasting is not the same as weather forecasting.

Climate prediction is to predict the possible trend of climate development in a certain period in the future based on the evolution of past climate. For example, a cold or warm winter was predicted last October.

Climate predictions must consider the effects of the atmosphere, oceans, biosphere and other factors, including the effects of human activities.

Weather forecast is to predict the weather changes in the next period of time based on the changing state of the atmosphere and recent weather conditions. For example, when you open the mobile app, you can see the weather conditions for the next week or fifteen days.

Relevant departments have been paying close attention to climate fluctuations. With 20 years of experience in abnormal climate periods, they can deal with small fluctuations calmly and will not panic even if they encounter some emergencies.

Feng Yi did not spend much time paying attention to the hail weather in a coastal province.

The closer to the Waking of Insects, the stronger the feeling of molting became. I didn’t go out and stayed at home every day.

If you have difficulty moving, you can lie down in your bedroom and look through the task list of the Joint Security Bureau.

It is impossible to sit cross-legged. At the same time, we must stop picking our feet... no, tail flicking. We must quit the bad habit of tail flicking.

He took a fancy to a mission about sea snakes, which was somewhat dangerous but had a lot of points.

What he values ​​​​is points. When the money from the Ancestor Company is available, he can spend a few more points to buy a batch of instruments to fill the underground laboratory.

The time was just right, Jingzhe had finished shedding her skin, and she could still rest for a while.

However, Feng Yi didn't accept the task immediately. He would wait until Jingzhe passed and then look at it. If no one took it by then, he would take it.

Another part of Yangcheng, a villa area close to the outskirts of the city.

Feng Chi was listening to the construction workers explain the reasons for suspending the construction.

"It has rained recently, and according to the weather forecast, the humidity will be high during the Jingzhe days, which is not suitable for rushing work..."

According to Feng Chi's requirements and model quality standards, this kind of weather is not conducive to the production of outdoor parts. However, other auxiliary and modification work can be done first, and the model in the shelter that has been initially formed can be repaired and maintained.

But in this way, the construction period will have to be extended by a few days, which cannot satisfy Feng Chi's desire of "as soon as possible".

Feng Chi looked at the sky and then flipped through the weather app on his phone. He reluctantly agreed.

Weather changes cannot be controlled, and plans cannot keep up with changes.

It has also rained in the past two days, but only a few drops or drizzle perfunctorily, and then it disappears after a while.

The weather forecast said there would be a thunderstorm around the time of Jingzhe, but Feng Chi didn't pay attention to it. It was just a thunderstorm in the beginning of spring. How big could it be?

But no matter what, the postponement is certain.

"Then after the Waking of Insects, the weather conditions will determine when to continue. It's thunder and rain, which is really not conducive to construction." Feng Chi said.

Another model maker next to him heard this and also said, "Thunderstorm in the Waking of Insects. When I was a child, I heard my elders say, 'There is thunder in the Waking of Insects, and there are swarms of insects and snakes.' It was thunder and rain at the same time. Spring is here and the weather is getting warmer, so all kinds of snakes and insects are coming out of their stings.”

The older man smiled and said: "Your hometown is not in the Yangcheng area, right? In the climate of Yangcheng, snakes still rest in winter? Even if they hibernate in winter, they only rest after a short period of cooling, unlike other places where the temperature is low. So long."

Even if the temperature here in Yangcheng does not cool down and snakes do not hibernate in winter, there will be basically no snakes in this area where Feng Chi lives. In terms of mosquitoes, properties and communities are regularly treated to drive away possible insects and snakes and optimize the living environment of residents.

But it's obvious that Feng Chi has his own ideas.

If there is no snake, just create one. Although it is not a living creature, it is still big enough.

Create a "hungry" atmosphere.

The day before the Waking of Insects.

Feng Yi was not in the mood to check his phone anymore. He felt uncomfortable all over and his mood was also low.

The pupils of both eyes seem to be covered with a blue-white film, and his vision is blocked. However, this does not affect Feng Yi's daily life. He can still distinguish objects without vision. His super-sensitive sense of smell allows him to "see" everything clearly in the material world. Emitted odor information cannot escape the olfactory system.

Starting from lunch on this day, Feng Yi didn't eat much.

Instead of going to the stone path, we went to the underground pool. A lot of water had been drained away, leaving a shallow layer. The stones on the bottom of the pool are exposed out of the water.

It was not time for molting yet, so Feng Yi lay down inside to rest. His stiff and bulky tail moved from time to time. The temperature and humidity here were more suitable for his current state, and the hardness of the stone was also suitable. It was like a massage, and it would not feel uncomfortable.

Feng Yi was brewing inside, and Xiao Wu did not go in to disturb him. He stayed outside. He seemed calm, but the flashing light in his eyes revealed his excitement. He said he would follow up and observe. This was an opportunity that neither Xiao Ji nor Xiao Geng could get to know!

Outside, it rained a little this morning, and the sun came out in the afternoon, but it did not last long.

The sun seemed to be pushed away by the clouds and slowly disappeared above the city.

A cat basking in the sun in a courtyard looked at the sky, and reluctantly returned to the house, as if he hated this gloomy and humid weather.

A car passed by on the road.

In the car, the person in the driver's seat was concentrating on the road, and the person in the co-pilot seat was playing a mobile game.

After the game, the person in the passenger seat stretched his shoulders to relax his optic nerves, looked out the window, and then, with eyes wide open, he suddenly leaned close to the window and screamed: "Tornado!"

"Nonsense! Where can a tornado come from at this time of year..."

The person in the driver's seat wanted to laugh at it, and glanced to the side. Just this one glance, he was so shocked that he almost turned the steering wheel crooked.

Not daring to be distracted, the car was driven to a nearby parking space, and the two hurriedly got out of the car to find a place to observe.

In the distant sky, it seemed that a tentacle was sticking out from the clouds, but this "tentacle" was still hanging in the sky and had not fallen yet.

"It's a tornado, right? It looks like one!"

"This... should have just rolled up and is in the process of forming. It hasn't touched the ground yet, so it can't be considered a tornado. That location should be Cuihu Lake? Is it going to be a 'dragon sucking water'? But it's not normal to appear at this time of year!"

"Who cares if it's normal or not! Let's go! Go to Cuihu Lake! Get closer!"

Anyway, they have nothing else to do later. It's rare to see such a spectacle, so of course they want to see it up close!

At this time, some people gathered by the lakeside of Cuihu Lake. Some were out for a walk, and some were passing by. After seeing the scene in the sky, they came over and held up their mobile phones to take pictures.

This place is a distance away from the location where the tornado was formed, and the violent airflow there can't be felt, but there is a sense of fear when it is close. For the sake of life safety, some people quickly moved away after taking pictures. No one knows whether the "tentacle" in the air will extend to their vicinity when it continues to touch the ground.

The bold people not only took photos and videos, but also wanted to find a boat to continue to approach the center of the lake. The person in charge of the Cuihu Scenic Area stepped forward to dissuade them and reminded everyone to pay attention to safety.

However, the "tentacle" in the sky lasted for about ten minutes and then disappeared. It did not touch the ground until it disappeared, and it was still hanging high, and then dispersed.

In the Yangcheng area, many people saw the scene in the sky, and the number of videos and photos uploaded to the Internet increased rapidly. Even though they were far away, the clearer pictures brought by technology directly became a hot topic.

[I saw it in the office in the afternoon, and I was super surprised! [Picture]]

[Failed to touch the ground! This tornado is not grounded enough [laughing]]

[Insufficient energy, if it can touch the ground, it can pump water from Cuihu Lake, right? The dragon sucking water failed to form, what a pity]

[Upright tubular cloud, one of the rare cloud types! This natural wonder is rare, and those who see it are lucky! However, it cannot be considered a tornado if it does not touch the ground. If you really want to label it as a tornado, it can only be considered a tornado cub. ]

[A tornado cub was captured! [Picture]]

[Tornado cubs captured from different angles [Picture] [Picture] [Picture]]

[What happened to the cub? The cub just wanted to drink some water from Cuihu Lake, but it was shyly shrunk by you all [Dog head]]

[Excuse me, when will this tornado cub grow up? ]

[Don't think about it. It's a mistake to appear at this time of year. You can wait until summer to see it. Go to the coast. Some places may have dragons sucking water. It depends on luck. It's possible that there will be no dragons for decades. ]

…

Many people say this is rare.

Of course it's rare!

Not to mention local young people, even the elderly who have lived in the local area for decades have never seen it.

The topic of this "tornado cub" ended with a lot of exclamations and hahahaha.

Professionals are analyzing the reasons for the formation of this vertical tube cloud. It is indeed a rare case that a tornado that failed to touch the ground appeared at this time of year.

People who watch the excitement regret that they can't see it with their own eyes. They can only watch videos and photos to satisfy their eyes.

Those who saw it with their own eyes lamented that they did not see a full-grown tornado or a waterspout.

Everyone regarded this as a special, accidental event.

The clouds were still there in the sky.

In the distant horizon, the sunset had long been driven away by the clouds.
