The SummaryTyphoon Vera (international code 197920) is a 1979 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity Super Typhoon, max wind 71m/s, minimum central pressure 915hPa, not in China Landfall, 1979-11-07 was numbered off, recording 23 track points.
Typhoon Vera, international code 197920, international name VERA, 1979 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1979-11-02 00:00:00, ended: 1979-11-07 12:00:00. Peak intensity: Super Typhoon, minimum central pressure: 915 hPa, max wind: 71m/s.
Typhoon Vera at 1979-11-02 00:00:00 at 7°N, 145.8°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Super Typhoon intensity with max winds of 71 m/s (~256 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 915hPa, recorded at 1979-11-04 06:00:00.
1979-11-07 12:00:00 After, Typhoon Vera gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1979-11-07 12:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 23 track points.
Typhoon Vera (197920) formed at Northwest Pacific低The latitude海域, 初始Position位 at lat 7°N, 145.8°附近. 在生命史初期, 系统呈现明显的WNMovingTrend. 从11月2日00时至11月4日12时, Typhoon 中心经纬度变化显示其持续 toward NW direction推进, 横跨多个During区间, Moving路径相对平直且稳定. 在此期间, 系统并未出现显著的转 toward 或停滞现象, 而是保持较高的移速穿越开阔洋面.
Go to 生命史后半段, 随着The latitude逐渐升高至lat 15°以上, Moving direction发生微调. 11月6日至7日期间, track points坐标显示Typhoon 继续 toward WNW, 最终 at 17°N, 117.9°附近减弱消散. 整个生命周期内, 该Typhoon 未Landfall任何陆地, 始终在海上活动, 其路径特征表现为典型的远洋型Typhoon 轨迹, 受副热带高压引导气流影响显著, 路径曲率较小.
Vera's Intensity evolution presents the typical characteristics of 'fast enhancement, long maintenance, rapid weakening'. the system within 30h after formed, from Nameless (12m/s) rapidly evolved to Super Typhoon (66m/s). on November 4 at 06:00 to 12:00, Typhoon reached peak intensity, max windined at 71m/s, andined at this high Intensity level about 30h (until November 5 at 12:00) . this long Timeins the characteristics of Super TyphoonIntensity, indicating that its core structure is extremely stable, energy supply sufficient.
However, from 5 November at 12 a.m., the max wind began to decline from 59m/s and until 6 November at 18 a.m. has weakened into Tropical Storm, showing a rapid decline after leaving the hot water zone or encountering adverse environments.
In contrast to typhoon of the same name, 1979 Vera's peak intensity (71m/s, Super Typhoon) was significantly high at 1989 Vera (Severe Tropical Storm) and 1983 Vera (Typhoon). although typhoon of the same name in 1986 and 1977 also reached Super Typhoon level, but in 1979 Verained a longer time at 71m/s at extremely high wind speed, its overall destruction potential and energy level at the front of the previous typhoon.
