Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Kate (197311) 的生命史始 at S海N部海域, 整体路径呈现稳定的WNW走 toward . formed初期 (8月23日00时至12时) , 系统位 at lat 19.3°N, 114.8°附近, 以Tropical Depression形态缓慢 toward WMoving, 纬度变化极小, 基本维持在19°N至19.3°N之间. 随着系统 toward W深入, 其Moving direction逐渐转为NW toward . 从8月24日00时起, Typhoon 中心纬度开始显著N抬, 由18.9°N逐步移至20.8°N, 经度则从112.1°E持续W进至106.1°E. 值得注意的是, 在8月26日00时至06时期间, Typhoon 中心纬度短Pause滞 at 20.8°N, 随后转为WSW, 最终 at 8月27日12时在Vietnam以E近海 (20°N, 101°E) 减弱消散. 全生命周期内, 该Typhoon 未Landfall任何land, 始终在海上活动, 路径平滑且无剧烈转 toward , 主要受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响, 保持较为一致的W行Trend.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Kate's Intensity evolution has undergone a complete process of 'formed-enhanced-top-weakened'.ined Tropical Depression Intensity (15-17m/s) before 18:00 on August 23, 24 intensified into Tropical Storm, and at 12:00 further upgraded to Severe Tropical Storm. reached its peak at 06:00 on August 25 to 06:00 on August 26, max windined at 30m/s, the center's lowest air pressure data was missing but the intensity level confirmed to be Severe Tropical Storm.
Data show that 1970's Kate (197014) had reached Super Typhoon level, and 1964's, 1967's and 1999's identical Typhoon level. In contrast, 1973's Kate only reached Severe Tropical Storm intensity with max winds of 30m/s, not reaching Typhoon level (32.7m/s) standard.
