Track Track and Turn toward characteristics

Typhoon Ida (197215) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现显著的“W进—N折—NE转 toward ”的抛物线形态. formed初期 (9月16日至18日) , 系统在15°N至17°N之间维持 toward WW, The latitude变化较小, During从152.4°E推进至157.6°E. 9月19日出现短暂的路径异常, 系统先 toward E回撤至155.5°E, 随后迅速调整 direction重新 toward W, 并 at 9月20日加速W进至151.2°E附近.

As the system N rose to 24.6°N, 142°E near peak intensity, influenced by the mid-high-latitude W-band guided airflow, the path occurred a sharp turn, from NW toward to NE toward Moving. Since then, Typhoon center quickly crossed Japan to E ocean, latitude reached its peak on September 25, 38.8°N, then gradually weakened and toward E away from the mainland, eventually dispersed at September 27 at 178°E near.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

The initial phase was Nameless, September 18 intensified into Severe Tropical Storm, September 19 explosive enhancement to Severe Typhoon level (46m/s), although the next day briefly weakened, but then again integrated enhancement. September 22 at 18, the system at 24.6°N reached the peak of life, confirmed Super Typhoon, max wind up to 56m/s. Peak stateined about a day after, with toward NGo to High latitude cold sea zone, intensity rapidly declined, September 24th dropped to Typhoon , September 26 further weakened into Tropical Storm.

Data show that in 1986, 1980 Ida only reached Severe Tropical Storm level, 1983 Ida was Typhoon level, 1975 Ida was Severe Typhoon level. Only in 1972 Ida reached Super Typhoon level, and Max Wind56m/s far above other years of the same name Typhoon peak intensity, showing the extreme energy characteristics of the year formed system.
