Characteristics of Typhoon Virginia

Track Track and Turn toward characteristics

Typhoon Virginia (196010) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现典型的“抛物线”型转 toward 特征. formed初期 (8月8日) , 系统位 at 140°E附近, 主要 toward NW, The latitude从18.9°N迅速提升至24.9°N. 在8月9日12:00至18:00期间, Typhoon 中心During由140.9°EW移至139.7°E, 达到最W端Position, 随后路径发生显著转折. 自8月10日00:00起, 系统开始 toward NE direction加速Moving, 经度从138.1°E持续E扩至159°E, 纬度亦同步N抬至44°N. 整个Moving过程未触及任何陆地, 无Landfall记录, 最终在Japan以E海域转化为温带气旋或消散. 这种先NW后NE的路径形态, 符合副热带高压脊线N侧引导气流变化的典型动力学特征.

Intensity Evolution and Life Cycle

该Typhoon Intensity变化剧烈, 经历了快速增强, 巅峰维持及迅速减弱三个阶段. 从8月8日00:00的Nameless (17m/s) 起步, 系统在48h内迅速加强, at 8月9日00:00达到Typhoon 级别 (35m/s) . peak intensity出现在8月10日00:00至06:00, 中心Max Wind达43m/s, 定性为Severe Typhoon. 值得注意的是, 在巅峰期过后, 随着The latitude升高Go to 中高纬度地区, 系统Intensity出现波动式减弱. 虽然在8月11日12:00至8月12日00:00期间, wind speed曾短暂回升至28-33m/s并重新达到Typhoon 级标准, 但整体Trend不可逆地走 toward 衰亡. 至8月12日12:00, intensity 降为Nameless (15m/s) , 并在后续观测中维持低Intensity直至生命史结束.
