Abstract :
Typhoons bring about serious damage to China. The forecasters of CMA predict typhoon track and rainfall intensity with numerical model, satellite imagines, radar data, automatic station data etc. There are 7 landfalling typhoons in China in 2005. Among these typhoons, Haitang has some characters of high intensity, strong wind, long maintenance over land etc. Its track and rainfall were predicted with numerical model successfully. Typhoon Matsa move towards northwest after landfall, overlapping with the astronomical tide forming strong storm surge.Warnings and disaster prevention and preparedness were in time but there was certain rainfall forecasting bias existed when Matsa move towards north and northeast.
