卫星角度看“艾琳”



美国东部沿海城市正在执行强制撤离命令,就是因为II类飓风“艾琳”的威胁。上周五早上从NASA的Goddard卫星拍下来的图像可以清楚地说明:请注意,这不是演习

纽约的撤离是史上从未有过的。城市的地铁系统于周六起关闭,多个州处于紧急状态,大西洋城的赌场关闭,学生们不许呆在自己的宿舍里。而灾难应急规划署则在策划从卡罗莱纳州到新英格兰调度电力。

飓风艾琳已经略有减弱,但是可能会在登陆前再次加强。预计将于周六登陆北卡罗来纳州,并一路北上穿过切萨皮克湾和特拉华州,马里兰州和弗吉尼亚半岛北部。最终到达纽约。那时,它仍是II类飓风。最终它将穿过魁北克,并进入拉布拉多海。

各位,注意安全。

   Hurricane Irene Swirls Northward Hurricane Irene is seen swallowing nearly the entire eastern seaboard in this satellite image from Friday morning. The image of Earth's full disk was captured by the GOES-13 satellite at 10:45 a.m. EDT. Click here to embiggen.

If you live in the eastern time zone, odds are you're battening down the hatches in advance of Hurricane Irene, a Category 2 monster threatening much of the eastern seaboard. Coastal communities are under mandatory evacuation orders in several states. This NASA Goddard image from Friday morning makes it clear this storm is no joke.

Evacuations are under way in several boroughs in New York, which apparently has never happened before, and the city’s subway system is shutting down at noon tomorrow. Multiple states are under emergency status, Atlantic City is closing casinos, college students are not allowed to move into their dorms, and disaster planners are bracing for power outages from the Carolinas to New England.

Irene has weakened slightly, but the storm could strengthen before it makes landfall, which is expected to happen in North Carolina on Saturday. From there, it will track north through the Chesapeake Bay and the Delaware, Maryland and Virginia peninsula, eventually moving through New York City, where it could still be a Category 2 storm. It will eventually pass through Quebec before petering out in the Labrador Sea.

Stay safe, everybody.
