Typhoon Hester, international code 196313, international name HESTER, 1963 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1963-09-08 12:00:00, ended: 1963-09-12 06:00:00. Peak intensity: Tropical Storm, minimum central pressure: 998 hPa, max wind: 23m/s.
Typhoon Hester at 1963-09-08 12:00:00 at 13.8°N, 148.4°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Tropical Storm intensity with max winds of 23 m/s (~83 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 998hPa, recorded at 1963-09-11 12:00:00.
1963-09-12 06:00:00 After, Typhoon Hester gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1963-09-12 06:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 16 track points.
Typhoon Hester (196313) has a short life history, from formed to dispersed for about 3 and a half days. Its overall path presents a stable WNW toward MovingTrend, then shift toward N. In the initial phase (September 8th, 12th to September 10th, 06th) , the system position at lat 13.8° to 15.9°N, between 148.4° to 141.7°, remains a relatively uniform WNW, the latitude slowly increases, the length continues to decrease. September 10th, 06th to September 11th, 12th, Moving speed slightly accelerates, the path directs toward more toward toward W, the Center moves rapidly from lng 141.7° to 136.7°.
It is worth noting that after the system reached the highest W end on September 11, at 12 a.m., there was a noticeable twist in the path. on September 11, at 18 a.m. to 12 a.m., the Typhoon center toward N factor increased significantly, the latitude jumping rapidly from 16.9° to 21.6°, while the length changes slowed (from 134.3° to 132.8°) , indicating that under the influence of guided airflow, the system turned toward, turned from W to N. Thro the process, the Typhoon did not landfall any land, always on ocean surface activity.
In terms of Intensity, Hester (196313) overall Intensity is weaker, the peak level is only Tropical Storm. The system was first born Nameless, max windined at 12m/s for two days (September 8, 12am to September 10, 00 pm) . From September 10, 06am, wind speed began to slowly increase, from 15m/s gradually increased to 17m/s. On September 11, 06am, the system was officially upgraded to Tropical Storm, wind speed to 20m/s, and at the same day at 12am reached the peak value of life Intensity, max wind to 23m/s. Then Intensity rapidly declined, September 11, 18am wind speed back to 20m/s, September 12, 00am back to Nameless level (17m/s) , until dispersed to 15m/s.
Hester (197129) and Hester (196601) both reached Severe Typhoon level, and Hester (196816) also reached Severe Tropical Storm level.
