Typhoon Kit, international code 196314, international name KIT, 1963 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1963-10-05 06:00:00, ended: 1963-10-11 18:00:00. Peak intensity: Super Typhoon, minimum central pressure: 930 hPa, max wind: 69m/s.
Typhoon Kit at 1963-10-05 06:00:00 at 15.7°N, 139.4°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Super Typhoon intensity with max winds of 69 m/s (~248 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 930hPa, recorded at 1963-10-09 06:00:00.
1963-10-11 18:00:00 After, Typhoon Kit gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1963-10-11 18:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 27 track points.
Typhoon Kit (196314) 的生命史始 at 1963年10月5日06时, formed at Northwest Pacific洋面 (15.7°N, 139.4°E) , 初始状态为Nameless. 在 formed初期, 系统主要呈现 toward WN的Trend, The latitude从15.7°N缓慢上升至19.4°N, During则从139.4°EW退至136.3°E. 值得注意的是, 在10月8日至9日期间, Typhoon 中心经度变化显著减缓, 特别是在10月9日06时至18时, Center维持在131.5°E附近, 显示出Typhoon 在达到peak intensity前后曾出现短暂的停滞或近乎垂直 toward N的Moving特征.
Since October 10, Typhoon turned toward NE direction accelerated Moving, the length quickly shifted from 132.7°EE to 146.0°E, the latitude also significantly N raised to 33.3°N. Thro its lifecycle, the Typhoon did not landfall any land, was always active on the open ocean, and finally at October 11 at 18 at the higher latitude waters weakened into Typhoon level.
Kit's Intensity evolution showed the characteristics of rapid improvement and long-term high-level maintenance. Starting from the 5th of October's Nameless (17m/s), the system rapidly enhanced to Typhoon in about 48h, and upgraded to Super Typhoon at 06:00 on October 8th (59m/s) . Its peak intensity appeared at 06:00 on October 9th, max wind at 69m/s, at the center position at 21.2°N, 131.5°E. In the subsequent 48h, despite the Position occurring Moving, but its Intensity always remained at the Super Typhoon level (56m/s above), until 06 October's 56m/swind speed, showing extremely strong structural stability.
Data show that the same name Typhoon peaked in 1988 and 1978 only at Severe Tropical Storm level, in 1985 Kit was Severe Typhoon level, and only in 1981 Kit was also Super Typhoon.
