Typhoon Hester Route Characteristics
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Hester (196601) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现显著的“W行后N折”特征. formed初期 (4月4日至7日) , 系统在低纬度海域 (7.3°N-9.4°N) 活动, 受引导气流影响, 主要 toward W, 经度从165.8°E快速W移至140.9°E, 期间纬度波动较小, 显示出稳定的纬 toward 运动Trend.
After April 8, as the system toward W deep into near 137.2°E, the path began to change subtly, Moving direction gradually shifted to NW toward . Go to the key phase of April 10 to 12, the Typhoon center continued toward NW direction in the range of 130°E to 125.5°E, latitude rapidly climbing from 14°N to 17.7°N. It is worth noting that in the end of the life of April 13 to 14, the system almost stagnated near 125.3°E-126.5°E and slightly toward E spin, then toward NMoving to 22.3°N dispersed.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Hester的Intensity演变经历了典型的“缓慢增强-快速爆发-迅速衰减”过程. 初生阶段为Tropical Depression, wind speed维持在10-17m/s之间, 增强势头平缓. 4月8日升级为Tropical Storm后, intensity 开始显著提升, at 4月10日00:00达到Typhoon 级别 (33m/s) . 随后在4月10日18:00及4月13日00:00两次触及peak intensity, max wind 达41m/s, 属Severe Typhoon等级. 然而, 其高Intensity维持Time较短, 4月13日18:00后迅速 weakened into Tropical Storm, 并 at 次日降格为Tropical Depression直至消散.
Compared to History, Hester's peak intensity (Severe Typhoon, 41m/s) in 1966 was better at Hester (Severe Tropical Storm) in 1968 and Hester (Tropical Storm) in 1963 , showing stronger development potential. but compared to Hester (Severe Typhoon level) in 1971, both were above the peak level at the same level.
