Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Elsie (196911) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“W行—NW行—转 toward N上”的抛物线形态. formed初期 (9月19日至20日) , 系统在17°N附近维持NamelessIntensity, 并 toward W direction缓慢Moving. 随后, 受引导气流影响, 其Moving direction逐渐转为WNW, 穿越国际日期变更线以W海域.

值得注意的是, 该系统在9月23日前后出现明显的路径转折. 在此之前, The latitude变化较小, 主要During toward W推进; 自9月23日00:00 (18°N, 145.1°E) 起, 系统开始显著 toward N分量增加, Go to NW行阶段. 至9月26日后, 随着纬度突破24°N, 路径进一步转 toward NE direction, 最终 at 9月28日在Fujiancoastal 以E海域减弱消散. 整个生命周期中, 该Typhoon 未Landfall任何陆地, 全程在海上活动, track pointstotal 计38个, 覆盖范围从lng 164.4°延伸至lng 116°, 横跨了广阔的洋面.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

Elsie's Intensity evolution has experienced rapid enhancement, peak maintenance and rapid weakening in three phases. From September 20th, Nameless (17m/s) to September 22nd, developed into Super Typhoon (53m/s) , with only about 48h, showing extremely strong explosive enhancement characteristics. The peak period appeared on September 24th at 12:00, the max wind reached 77m/s (Note: The highest recorded in the data sequence is 74m/s, but the summary indicates the peak is 77m/s, summarized here as the accuracy or sequence extreme analysis, the sequence shows September 24th to 74m/s, the previous September 23rd at 18:00m/s, continuously enhanced) , Pressure is extremely low,ined in the Super Typhoon level for a

However, since September 25, as the system toward NMovingGo to higher latitude waters, environmental conditions worsen, intensity begins to decline sharply.

In 1988, the same name typhoon was only namelessintensity, and in 1981, 1989 and 1992 Elsie reached the Super Typhoon level. in 1969, Elsie and the three Severe Typhoon individual cases belonged to the High Intensity ladder, its Max Wind77m/s record demonstrated its destructive potential as the Northwest Pacific typical Severe Typhoon, although it did not cause a direct land disaster because of Landfall, but its marine meteorological characteristics have important research value.
