Typhoon Carmen, international code 197810, international name CARMEN, 1978 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1978-08-10 12:00:00, ended: 1978-08-20 00:00:00. Peak intensity: Typhoon , minimum central pressure: 960 hPa, max wind: 41m/s.
Typhoon Carmen at 1978-08-10 12:00:00 at 16.6°N, 145.5°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Typhoon intensity with max winds of 41 m/s (~148 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 960hPa, recorded at 1978-08-15 00:00:00.
Typhoon Carmen gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1978-08-20 00:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 39 track points.
Typhoon Carmen (197810) 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10日至12日) , 系统在144°E至145°E附近徘徊并缓慢W移, The latitude维持在16°N左右, 显示出 formed初期引导气流较弱或存在双Typhoon 互旋等复杂环境背景. 8月12日后, 系统开始加速 toward NW, During从144.4°E迅速W进至123.2°E, 纬度同步N抬至28.7°N, 这一阶段Moving速度显著加快, 横跨了广阔的洋面.
It is worth noting that the Typhoon reached the most W end between August 15 and 16 (about 123.2°E-124.6°E), followed by a noticeable turn of the path. From August 17, the system turned toward NE, finally at August 20 at 34.8°N, 126.8°E near weakened into Nameless and ended the observation. Thro the course, the Typhoon did not landfall any land, always in marine activity, its path turning point at the E SeaE waters, in accordance with the typical rule of motion of the summer Typhoon influenced by the sub-tropical high-pressure edge and the pre-W wind belt airflow.
In terms of intensity change, Typhoon Carmen underwent a complete 'formed-enhanced-top-weakened' process. Starting from Nameless (10m/s) on August 10, the system rapidly intensified into Severe Tropical Storm within 48h, and upgraded to Typhoon on August 13 . on August 15 00:00 to 18:00, the system reached peak intensity, max windined at 41m/s, then Intensity began to slowly decline.
Its peak wind speed 41m/s low at 1986 Carmen (Super Typhoon level), but significantly high at 1983 Carmen (Tropical Storm, 992hPa) and 1971 Carmen (Severe Tropical Storm) . Compared to 1974 Carmen (Typhoon), both are typical Typhoon level, but the 1978 system completed the history of life in the ocean and no Landfall records, and the lack of specific atmospheric pressure data made precise thermodynamic structure comparison limited.
