Typhoon Shirley, international code 196808, international name SHIRLEY, 1968 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1968-08-17 00:00:00, ended: 1968-08-21 18:00:00. Peak intensity: Typhoon , minimum central pressure: 960 hPa, max wind: 33m/s.
Typhoon Shirley at 1968-08-17 00:00:00 at 16.3°N, 132.2°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Typhoon intensity with max winds of 33 m/s (~119 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 960hPa, recorded at 1968-08-21 00:00:00.
1968-08-21 18:00:00 After, Typhoon Shirley gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1968-08-21 18:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 20 track points.
Typhoon Shirley (196808) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现稳定的NW toward MovingTrend. 从1968年8月17日00时在 (16.3°N, 132.2°E) formedNameless开始, 系统持续 toward WN direction行进. 在初期阶段 (17日至18日凌晨) , The latitude变化较小, 主要体现为During的快速W移, 表明其受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响显著. 随着Time推移, 路径逐渐 toward N分量增加, 从18日06时的15.9°N逐步N抬至21日18时的23°N, 总纬度跨度约6.7度, 经度跨度约18.4度. 整个过程中未出现明显的折 toward 或回旋, 路径平滑且连贯. 值得注意的是, 该系统全程无Landfall记录, 始终在海上活动, 最终 at 8月21日18时在 (23°N, 113.8°E) 附近减弱消散.
Shirley's Intensity evolution experienced the process of 'slow enhancement - fluctuation adjustment - peak eruption - rapid decline'.The system upgraded to Tropical Storm about 30h after forming, then reached Severe Tropical Storm level at noon on 18th. During the 19th 06:00 to 19th 18th, the intensity occurred a short fluctuation, the wind speed fell from 25m/s to 23m/s and then rebounded, showing the internal structure underwent a period of adjustment.Go to 20th, the system reorganized and steadily strengthened,ining 30m/swind speed for 12h. Until 21st August, Shirleypeak reached the intensity, upgraded to Typhoon, the max wind recorded 33m/s, andined that Intens
Compared with previously the same name Typhoon, Shirley's peak intensity in 1968 at a medium level. Compared to at 1963 and 1965 reached the 'Super Typhoon' level of the same name cyclone, and in 1974 'Typhoon' level Shirley, in 1968 Shirley's 33m/swind speed seemed weaker; but at 1978 only reached the 'Nameless' peak Shirley. This shows that although the same name, but different years of the atmospheric background for the presence of support for the development of Typhoon significantly different, in 1968 Shirley although not developed to the extreme Severe Typhoon, but still completed the full cycle of life from Nameless to Typhoon.
