Track Track and Turn toward characteristics

Typhoon Shirley (196518) 的生命周期始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW-NE”抛物线型Moving特征. formed初期 (9月4日至5日) , 系统在142°E附近维持NamelessIntensity, 缓慢 toward NW. Go to 9月6日后, 随着The latitudeN抬至21°N左右, 系统开始显著加速并 toward WN direction推进, 横穿Philippines以E海域.

The critical turn toward process took place between September 9th and 10th. On September 9th at 12, the system position at 29.2°N, 131.5°E, then the path gradually shifted from NW to N, and then turned toward NE. Especially between September 10th and 12th, the system quickly moved from 33.8°N to 40.1°N, the length also moved from 134.3°EE to 138.1°E, marking its complete Go to W wind belt guided airflow control zone, completed the crossing from low latitude toward high latitude.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

Shirley展现了极为迅猛的增强过程和极高的peak intensity. 从9月5日的Nameless (12m/s) 到9月6日发展为Typhoon (38m/s) , 仅用半天Time便完成等级跨越. 随后Intensity持续爆发, 9月7日即达到Super Typhoon级别 (51m/s) . 巅峰状态出现在9月9日, max wind 高达66m/s, 并在该Intensity附近维持了较长Time (9月9日00时至12时wind speed分别为61m/s和61m/s, 结合峰值数据可知其核心结构稳固) . 值得注意的是, 即使在9月10日 toward N快速Moving并Go to 较高The latitude后, 其wind speed仍维持在56m/s的Super Typhoon下限, 直至越过40°N后才迅速 weakened into Typhoon 及Tropical Storm.

In 1978, the same name Typhoon peak intensity in 1974 and 1968 was only Nameless or ordinary Typhoon level, while in 1963 Shirley also reached Super Typhoon level, but in 1965 Shirley with 66m/s Max Wind, showed a stronger energy release capacity.
