Typhoon Flossie Trail Characteristics

Track Track and Moving Features

The life history of the 8th Typhoon “Flossie” in 1964 was relatively short, from formed to dispersed for about 3.5 days.The entire path showed remarkable NW to NE turn toward characteristics.Initial phase (July 26, 00:00 to 27:12) , system position at E Sea Sea, from 25.3°N, 127.8°E toward NW direction stable Moving, latitude gradually N rising, longitude continued W in, across the lng 127° to 123° region.

The key turn toward point appeared on July 27, around 18:00, at about 29.5°N, 122.9°E. After that, the Moving direction changed significantly, from NW to N, and then to NE. During the period of July 28 to 29, the Typhoon accelerated toward NE direction, the latitude rapidly climbed from 30.7°N to 39.5°N, the length also rose from 122.5°E to 125.2°E, and finally Go to High Latitude waters.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

在Intensity变化方面, “Flossie”经历了快速增强, 维持巅峰及逐渐减弱的过程. 7月26日00:00初生时为Tropical Storm (20m/s) , 仅用12h便 intensified into Typhoon (33m/s) . 随后Intensity持续攀升, at 7月27日18:00达到巅峰状态, max wind 录得41m/s, 并在此Intensity上维持了约18h (至7月28日06:00) . 7月28日12:00后, 随着系统 toward 高The latitudeMoving, intensity 开始缓慢减弱, wind speed逐步降至38m/s, 35m/s, 直至7月29日12:00降格为Severe Tropical Storm (28m/s) 后结束观测.

Compared to the same name History, the 1964 'Flossie' peak intensity at the 1969 (Severe Tropical Storm) and the 1961 (Tropical Storm) system of the same name, showing stronger development potential. however, compared to at 1975 and 1972 also reached the typhoon level of the same name typhoon, supported by at lack of specific air pressure data, only from the wind speed indicator, its 41m/s peak wind speed at the intermediate upper level.
