Typhoon Irma, international code 196602, international name IRMA, 1966 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1966-05-11 06:00:00, ended: 1966-05-22 00:00:00. Peak intensity: Super Typhoon, minimum central pressure: 972 hPa, max wind: 61m/s.
Typhoon Irma at 1966-05-11 06:00:00 at 7.8°N, 137.1°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Super Typhoon intensity with max winds of 61 m/s (~220 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 972hPa, recorded at 1966-05-17 00:00:00.
Typhoon Irma gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1966-05-22 00:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 44 track points.
Typhoon Irma (196602) 的生命史始 at 1966年5月11日06时, formed at Northwest Pacific低The latitude海域 (7.8°N, 137.1°E) , 初始状态为Nameless. 在 formed初期, 系统呈现明显的W行Trend, 从137.1°E迅速W移至128.8°E附近. 值得注意的是, 在5月13日12时, 其中心位 at 9.6°N, 130.3°E, intensity 短暂回落至Tropical Storm级别, 随后再次增强.
From May 15, while the systemins Severe TyphoonIntensity, Moving direction from pure W toward gradually shifts to NW toward, and continues toward High latitude advancement. From May 18 to 19, Typhoon has a short length wander between 119,5°E to 120.4°E, showing the slowing down of the speed and complexity of the path. Since then, the system has completely turned toward NE, from 120.2°E accelerated E, and finally at May 22 at 00 am at 25.3°N, 130.3°E weakened into Nameless and ended observations.
In terms of Intensity evolution, Typhoon Irma showed the characteristics of rapid enhancement and long-term maintenance of high Intensity. From 12m/sNameless on May 11, in less than two days Time developed to 35m/s Typhoon at May 12, 18 . After experiencing a brief fluctuation, from May 15, 00, intensity jumped to 46m/s Severe Typhoon level, andined about 50h at this Intensity or higher level, until May 17, 06 am. Data showed its peak Max Wind reached 61m/s, in the Super Typhoon level, showed a very strong explosion. However, after May 18, Intensity rapidly declined, although there was a brief rise to 30m/s on May 21, but the overall weakened, Trend eventually disappeared.
In 1993, the same-named Typhoon peak intensity in 1988 and 1985 was Severe Tropical Storm, Severe Tropical Storm and Severe Typhoon, both low at the Super Typhoon level of this case. only 1981 Typhoon Irma (198121) also reached Super Typhoon level, indicating that 'Irma' this name has twice in history produced extremely high intensity tropical cyclone, but in 1966 this process due to its no Land record and path curvature, has a unique ocean meteorological research value.
