Typhoon Lorna, international code 197216, international name LORNA, 1972 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1972-09-30 00:00:00, ended: 1972-10-04 06:00:00. Peak intensity: Typhoon , minimum central pressure: 990 hPa, max wind: 38m/s.
Typhoon Lorna at 1972-09-30 00:00:00 at 17.6°N, 120.2°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Typhoon intensity with max winds of 38 m/s (~137 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 990hPa, recorded at 1972-10-02 06:00:00.
1972-10-04 06:00:00 After, Typhoon Lorna gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1972-10-04 06:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 18 track points.
Typhoon Lorna (197216)'s life began at the Philippines with an E ocean surface, presenting overall a stable W line trend. Starting from the formed early Nameless phase (17.6°N, 120.2°E), the system continued toward W through the Vietnam Sea N part of the waters.
Specifically, the system during the period from September 30 to October 2, the length moved from 120.2°E rapidly to 107.3°E, showing a strong guiding effect of the airflow. It is worth noting that during the period from October 1 12:00 to October 2 12:00, the center latitude of the Typhoon essentially stagnated in the range from 17.4°N to 18.2°N, while the length continued in W, indicating its Moving path near W. Until after October 3, as the system deepened into the sea near the Central S Peninsula, the pathway slightly toward S deviated, and finally at October 4 at 06:00 at 15.5°N, decreased near 101.9°E.
Lorna的Intensity演变经历了完整的“ formed-增强-巅峰-减弱”过程. 系统在9月30日12:00由Nameless intensified into Tropical Storm, 随后稳步增强, at 10月1日12:00达到Typhoon 级别 (33m/s) . 经过约一天的维持与微调, 其在10月2日06:00至12:00达到peak intensity, max wind 录得38m/s. 此后, 受环境因素影响, 系统迅速减弱, 10月3日00:00降格为Tropical Storm, 并 at 10月3日12:00进一步 weakened into Nameless, 最终失去热带气旋特征.
Compared with the same name History, Lorna's Intensity performance in 1972 was more prominent. Compared with at 1976 Lorna (top only for Nameless) and Lorna in 1969 and 1966 (top both for Severe Tropical Storm), in 1972 Lorna successfully developed to Typhoon level, and Max Wind reached 38m/s, significantly strong at the above three processes of the same name. however, its Intensity is still less than that of 1961 Lorna (top as Super Typhoon).
