Jabatan Meteorologi SEMBUNYI Fakta RIBUT 'SONAMU' Landa Pantai Timur MALAYSIA ..?

Informasi yang berkaitan perkara ini telah berlegar rancak di laman Facebook. Iaitu Ribut yang digelar 'Sonamu' Dijangka melanda pantai Timur Semenanjung Malaysia sebagaimana ilustrasi gambar di atas dan dibawah. Ribut tersebut dijangka bergerak pada kelajuan 70km/jam dan dijangka tiba di perairan dan daratan Bermula 7-8 Januari 2013.

Pada kelajuan tersebut, kesan ketara boleh dilihat pada perubahan ketinggian ombak dan air pasang besar serta jumlah hujan yang LUARBIASA namun diharapkan langkah PERLU telah diambil oleh pihak kerajaan untuk menghadapinya. Pemikir mengharapkan laporan Telus dari jabatan Meterologi agar rakyat bersedia secukupnya untuk menghadapai keadaan buruk Sekiranya benar. Apa pun mohon kesahihan berita ini di SAHkan oleh pihak Kerajaan Malaysia.

Telah beberapa kali cuba membuka laman http://www.met.gov.my/ tetapi kecewa. Apa pun berusahalah merujuk jabatan meterologi Malaysia untuk perkembangan dan laporan berita yang lebih tepat.

According to latest report by JTWC, Tropical Storm Sonamu was located approximately 270 nm southeast of Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam, has tracked west-southwestward at 5 knots. As Sonamu has been tracking westward, it has started to slow in the weakening steering environment. Sea surface temperatures are currently favorable for further development (28 to 29 degrees Celsius).

Sonamu is forecast to begin weakening by Monday as it heads towards the Malay Peninsula. It will track slowly along the southern periphery of the low- to mid-level subtropical ridge over the Andaman Aea in a generally westward direction through the next three days. It is forecasted to weaken to a Tropical Depression before making landfall near Thailand and Malaysia. A large swath of vertical wind shear associated with the North East monsoon will rapidly weaken the system.
