Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Gordon (198523) 的生命周期始 at SHainan部海域, 整体路径呈现显著的“先NE, 后NW”的折线型Moving特征. formed初期 (11月19日至21日) , 系统自Vietnam以E洋面 (6.8°N, 108.1°E) toward NE direction缓慢Moving, During从108.1°E推进至112.7°E, The latitude微升至8.6°N, 此阶段水平位移主要受低层引导气流影响, Moving速度较为平缓.

During 18h00 to 22h00 on November 21, the system showed signs of stagnation and turn toward near 112.5°E-112.7°E, with the length beginning to retract by E toward W, marking a fundamental reversal of Moving direction. subsequently (November 22 to 26), the Typhoon subjects stabilized toward NW, eventually dispersed near 13.5°N, 108.3°E. Thro their lifetime, the system has been active at sea, with no landfall records, and the pathway span is mainly concentrated at 6.8° to 13.5°N, within the rectangular region of 108.1° to 112.7°E, without direct impact on land.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

在Intensity变化方面, Gordon表现为典型的“弱生弱消”特征. 初始阶段为Nameless, max wind 12m/s. 经过约5天的缓慢增强, at 11月24日18:00达到peak intensity, 升级为Tropical Storm, max wind 增至20m/s (注: 数据摘要提及巅峰23m/s, 但 track points最高记录为20m/s, 此处以路径采样极值为准或视为短暂峰值) , 随后迅速减弱. 11月25日18:00后, wind speed回落至15m/s及以下, 重新降级为Nameless, 直至消散. 整个过程气压数据缺失, 但wind speed变化显示其结构松散, 缺乏持续加深的动力条件.

Gordon (198908) and 1982 Gordon (198215) both reached Super Typhoon level, 1979 Gordon (197907) also reached Severe Tropical Storm level.
