Track Track and Moving Features

1983 No. 4 Typhoon “Wayne” formed at Northwest Pacific low-latitude waters, initial position at 8°N, 144°E near. In the early history of life (July 20 to 21) , the systemined NamelessIntensity, overall presented toward WN direction slow Moving trend, length rapidly shifted from 144°EW to 139°E, latitude increased from 8°NN to 10.5°N. Go to July 22, after the speed shifted slightly accelerated, pathined stable NW toward , until July 23 morning reached 16.2°N, 131.8°E when upgraded to Severe Tropical Storm.

It is worth noting that the Typhoon occurred a significant Intensity eruption near the 18° N latitude, but the path direction did not change sharply, alwaysining the WNW's Moving position. From July 23, 14:00 to July 25, 08:00, the Typhoon center continued toward NW direction advancing, across the Philippines to E surface, eventually Go to S Sea NE department and Taiwan Strait S department waters.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

The “Wayne” Intensity evolution shows a typical “fast enhancement – peak maintenance – gradual weakening” characteristic. The system on July 23, at 02:00 only for Severe Tropical Storm (25m/s, 990hPa), but in less than 24h subsequent sharp enhancement. especially on July 23, at 20:00, Pressure dropped to 912hPa, max wind reached 65m/s, establishing its Super Typhoon status. This peak intensityined about 36h (until July 25, 02:00) , the minimum period of air pressure remained between 912hPa to 935hPa, showing extremely strong structural stability.

From 8:00 on July 25th, as the latitude continued to rise to 22.3° N, Typhoon began to weaken significantly, wind speed from 50m/s dropped to 12m/s on July 26th, air pressure rose back to 1002hPa. Compared with previously the same name Typhoon, Wayne's Intensity in 1983 far surpassed other years: in 1989 Wayne only for Typhoon level, in 1986 for Severe Typhoon, and in 1979 Wayne only reached Severe Tropical StormIntensity.
