Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Orchid (198318) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现显著的W行后折 toward NE再S落的复杂形态. formed初期 (11月14日至16日) , 系统位 at 147°E以E, 受引导气流影响稳定 toward WS, Latitude从13.8°N降至9.3°N. 11月17日, 气旋出现明显转 toward , 路径转为NW toward , 并快速穿越Philippines以E海域. 11月20日至23日期间, Typhoon 在125°E至126°E附近海域经历了一段近乎停滞的徘徊期, 纬度由12.9°N缓慢N抬至17°N, Longitude变化极小, 这种长Time的滞留为Intensity的剧烈爆发提供了有利的热力条件. 巅峰过后, 系统 at 11月24日开始 toward E微移, 随后在11月25日至27日期间转 toward SW及正S, 最终在124.9°E附近减弱消散. 全生命周期内无Landfall记录, 主要活动范围集中在开阔洋面.
Intensity Evolution & Historical Comparison
From November 18 intensified into Tropical Storm (23m/s), the system rapidly upgraded in just 5 days, to November 23 reached its peak, max wind reached 64m/s, rated as Super Typhoon level. It is worth noting that its peakined a shorter time, only a day after (November 24) wind speed dropped to 48m/s, then continued to weaken, until November 27th has degraded to Tropical Depression (15m/s) .
Although the data do not provide specific minimum air pressure values for accurate thermodynamic comparison, in terms of wind speed, its Intensity is superior to the same name system at 1987 (Severe Typhoon) and 1980 (Severe Typhoon).
