What's with the dragon sucking water?
Caused by typhoons and tornadoes at sea, due to the high air pressure around the tornado and the low air pressure in the middle, all the water is sucked into the hole in the middle of the tornado, thus forming a landscape of "dragon absorbing water".
20 1 1 In early May, the southern part of the United States was hit by a tornado, which destroyed a large number of towns and caused hundreds of deaths. On May 3, Honolulu Port in Hawaii even saw a rare scene of "Ssangyong absorbing water".
How do dragons absorb water?
Tornadoes are water-absorbing dragons, which are common tornadoes on land. Tornadoes are the flow of air, and air is invisible. We can only see it because the air pressure in the center of the tornado is very low and attractive. Attract dust, water vapor and other sundries. So we can see the outline of the tornado. If a tornado moves on the water, the center of the tornado will suck water into the sky like a syringe. Due to gravity, liquid water cannot stay in the air for a long time. So after the dragon absorbs water, the water sucked into the sky will fall down. It formed rain, which was a heavy rain. So the so-called dragon water absorption is a tornado. The dragon absorbs water, which vividly describes this phenomenon.
Dragon suction is a tornado that occasionally appears over warm water. Its upper end is connected with thunderstorm clouds, and its lower end directly reaches the water surface, rotating and moving at the same time. This is a vortex, and the air rotates rapidly around the axis of the tornado. Attracted by the extremely low air pressure in the center of the tornado, the water flow is sucked into the bottom of the vortex and then becomes a vortex around the axis. Tornadoes roll water from lakes or oceans into the air, forming a high water column. Like being sucked into the air, the water in the water column is commonly called "dragon water absorption" or "tornado water". From a distance, the water column swept into the air by a tornado is not only like a python dangling in the air, but also like the nose of an elephant that keeps swinging.
On September 3, 2007, the "Dragon Sucking Water" spectacle appeared in Xingyun Lake in Jiangchuan, which was reported by the media and attracted wide attention from all walks of life. Villagers along the lake generally believe that "dragon absorbs water" is a common natural phenomenon, which has been rainy for many years, but there are also some mysterious phenomena that are difficult to explain. Li Jiangui, a villager from Shiyanshao Village, Luju Town, Jiangchuan County, started fishing at the age of six or seven. He is 47 years old. He told the author that he had seen too many phenomena of "dragons absorbing water", but such a magical landscape on September 3 was rare.
Dragon water absorption in recent years;
On August 3, 2009, the landscape of "dragon absorbing water" appeared on Changchun Lake in Qixia City. On the same day 16, a towering water column suddenly rose on the lake in Changchun, and it rained cats and dogs instantly.

At 9: 30 in the morning of August 23, 2009, when I went to Erhai Lake, the weather suddenly changed, the water was covered with dark clouds, and a water column was connected between the sea and the sky like a black dragon. Due to the vigorous development of cumulus clouds over Erhai Lake, the up-and-down convection movement intensifies and the temperature difference increases, forming this spectacle.
20 10 at 9 o'clock in the morning on July 27th, a rare tornado appeared in the sea between Hong Kong and Shenzhen, forming three rare dragon-sucking landscapes on the sea surface.
On the morning of September 6th, 2065438+00, a "dragon" fell into the lake from the boundless sky in the drizzle? This story, which sounds like a myth, really happened in Qinghai Lake, which is located on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, with an altitude of 3,200 meters. On September 1 day, the meteorological landscape of dragon water absorption appeared twice in Qinghai Lake, and the plateau Shenhu Lake added more exotic colors.
On August 2012 18, a rare spectacle of "Five Dragons Sucking Water" was discovered in Lake Michigan, USA.
20 12 at noon on August 22nd, four wonders of "dragon sucking water" appeared in the southern waters of Beihai City, Guangxi.
