Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Polly (197415) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW行-转 toward NE”的抛物线形态. formed初期 (8月24日至26日) , 系统在低The latitude海域缓慢 toward WS, 随后逐渐调整为稳定的NW toward 路径. 在8月27日至29日期间, Typhoon 维持NW行进 direction, 纬度从18.8°N迅速提升至23.7°N, During由144.2°EW进至141.2°E, 显示出较强的引导气流作用.

路径的关键转折点出现在8月30日至31日之间. 随着系统N上至30°N附近的高The latitude区域, 受W风带影响, Moving direction发生显著改变, 由NW转为NE direction. 此后, Typhoon 加速 toward NE, 穿越Japan以E海域, 最终Go to 中高纬度开阔洋面. 整个生命周期长达15天半, track points多达63个, 表明其结构在大部分Time内保持完整, 未受陆地地形摩擦的直接干扰, 全程无Landfall记录.
