Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Billie (197613) 的生命周期始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW行—转 toward N—NE消散”的抛物线形态. formed初期 (7月31日至8月2日) , 系统位 at 低The latitude洋面 (8.2°N-11°N) , 受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响, 稳定 toward NW. 8月3日至8月5日期间, 路径出现短暂的W折调整, 随后在8月6日左右Go to 快速N上阶段.

It is worth noting that the Typhoon completed the key turn toward process between August 7th and August 8th. Coordinates show that its latitude jumped rapidly from 20°N to 23.1°N, the length from 135.8°EW to 131.1°E and then began toward E deviation trend weakening, turning to main toward N advancing. After August 9th, with the latitude breaking through 24°N, the system gradually Go to the mid-latitude W wind band control zone, Moving direction further inclined toward NE, finally at August 12th at 31°N, 108°E near weakened into Nameless and ended observation.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

Billie's Intensity evolution underwent a complete 'formed-enhanced-top-weakened' process. The initial phase was Nameless, wind speedined at 10-15m/s. After upgrading to Tropical Storm on August 4, intensity rapidly climbed, in only 3 days Time was developed by Tropical Storm (20m/s) to Super Typhoon (53m/s) . August 8 reached the peak of life, max wind reached 59m/s, then brieflyined Super Typhoon level. However, Go to the latitude sea area, impacted by the reduction of sea temperature and the vertical wind shift, intensity sharply declined: August 9th dropped to Severe Typhoon (48m/s) , August 10th further weakened into Severe Tropical Storm (30m/s),

Its peak wind speed reached 64m/s (note: according to summary data) , belonging to the Super Typhoon level.Return to historical data, 1973 Billie (197303) and 1970 Billie (197008) also reached Super Typhoon Intensity, indicating that 'Billie' the name in history often corresponds to the high Intensity system; while 1967 Billie only for Typhoon level, 1964 Billie only for Severe Tropical Storm level.
