Vietnam Could Face Yagi-Strength Super Typhoons Every Seven Years Under 4°C Warming
A recent climate-change report indicates that Vietnam could face super typhoons with destructive power comparable to Typhoon Yagi, the strongest storm to hit the country in 70 years in 2024, on average once every seven years if global temperatures rise by 4°C. Under a high greenhouse-gas-emissions scenario, the number of hot days could increase by more than 50 by the end of the 21st century, while the number of extremely hot days could increase by about 20. If global warming reaches 2°C, Vietnam could face such a super typhoon once every 13 years; at 3°C, once every nine years; and at 4°C, once every seven years.
