Typhoon Elsie, international code 198117, international name ELSIE, 1981 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1981-09-24 00:00:00, ended: 1981-10-02 06:00:00. Peak intensity: Super Typhoon, minimum central pressure: 895 hPa, max wind: 77m/s.
Typhoon Elsie at 1981-09-24 00:00:00 at 10.2°N, 146.6°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Super Typhoon intensity with max winds of 77 m/s (~277 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 895hPa, recorded at 1981-09-28 00:00:00.
1981-10-02 06:00:00 After, Typhoon Elsie gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1981-10-02 06:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 34 track points.
Typhoon Elsie (198117) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW-NE”抛物线型转 toward 特征. formed初期 (9月24日至26日) , 系统自146.6°E附近 toward NW direction稳定Moving, The latitude从10.2°N逐步N抬至13.2°N, During持续W进. 9月27日至29日期间, Moving direction逐渐由NW转为N, 并在135°E至132°E区间维持较高的 toward N分量, 此阶段为路径的关键转折期.
Go to October after, influenced by high-altitude guided airflow changes, the Typhoon at 30°N to N occurred significantly toward toward. on October 1 at 00 to 12, the Center quickly moved from 27.6°N/133.6°E to 30.2°N/137.6°E, marking its official Go to accelerate NE toward Moving phase.
Elsie's Intensity evolution has experienced rapid enhancement, peak maintenance and slow weakening in three stages. Starting from September 24's Nameless (10m/s), the system rapidly intensified into Typhoon within 48h, and at September 26th at 12 to reach the Super Typhoon level (51m/s) . September 28th at 00, its Max Wind peaked at 77m/s, and since then until September 30th at 12h, the central wind speed has beenined at the Super Typhoon level above 59m/s, peak intensity time lasting for 4 days, showing strong structural stability.
In the historical comparison of the same name Typhoon, the performance of Elsie in 1981 is especially prominent. Data show that in 1992, 1989 and 1975 the same name Typhoon although also reached the Super Typhoon level, but in 1981 Elsie showed the top intensity characteristics with an extremely large wind speed of 77m/s. In contrast, in 1988 the same name Typhoon developed only as Nameless, the intensity difference is huge.
