Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Polly (196807) 的生命周期始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现显著的“先NW, 后W折, 再NE”的复杂转 toward 特征. formed初期 (8月5日至7日) , 系统位 at lat 21.9°至24.3°N, 157.2°至155.6°之间, 主要 toward NW direction缓慢Moving, 期间The latitude变化较小, During toward W推进约1.6个经度. 8月8日起, 受引导气流影响, Moving速度加快并持续 toward WNW direction行进, 至8月10日到达lat 31.8°N, 139.3°附近, 此时达到路径最N端的一个阶段性高点.

On August 11-14 the system turned toward SW to W, the latitude dropped from 31.6°N to 27.9°N, the length from 134.6°EW to 123.9°E, this phase constituted the 'W fraction' of the path. After August 15, the path again turned toward NE direction to accelerate Moving, and finally at August 17 at 41.9°N, 134.7°C to weaken dispersal.
