Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

In terms of intensity changes, Typhoon Carmen experienced a typical 'formed-enhanced-top-weakened' process. October 15 at 00, the system by Nameless intensified into Tropical Storm (23m/s), then rapidly enhanced. October 16 at 00 to reach Typhoon level (33m/s), although briefly weakened into Severe Tropical Storm at 12 o'clock, but quickly at October 17 at 12 again intensified into Typhoon . October 18 at 12 o'clock, Typhoon reached peak intensity, max wind recorded 38m/s. Then, influenced by environmental factors, intensity gradually decreased, October 19 at 12 o'clock to Tropical Storm, until October 2000 weakened into Nameless.

Its peak wind speed 38m/s low at 1986 Carmen (Super Typhoon level), but significantly high at 1983 Carmen (Tropical Storm, 992hPa) and 1971 Carmen (Severe Tropical Storm) . Compared with 1978 Carmen (Typhoon level), both are close to the level, but the 1974 systemined the longer Time's Typhoon Intensity when approaching the peak, showing some structural stability.
