The SummaryTyphoon Fabian (international code 198811) is a 1988 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity Typhoon, max wind 38m/s, minimum central pressure 970hPa, not in China Landfall, 1988-09-03 was numbered off, recorded 42 track points.
Typhoon Fabian, international code 198811, international name FABIAN, 1988 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1988-08-24 00:00:00, ended: 1988-09-03 06:00:00. Peak intensity: Typhoon , minimum central pressure: 970 hPa, max wind: 38m/s.
Typhoon Fabian at 1988-08-24 00:00:00 at 30.4°N, 143.6°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Typhoon intensity with max winds of 38 m/s (~137 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 970hPa, recorded at 1988-09-02 06:00:00.
Typhoon Fabian gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1988-09-03 06:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 42 track points.
Typhoon Fabian (198811)'s life began at the Northwest Pacific ocean surface, the overall path showed the untypical characteristics of significant 'first stagnant wandering, then accelerating NE shift'.In the early formed period (August 24 to August 29), the center of the system long stagnated at lat 30° to 31.5° N, between 142° to 144° N. During this period, the Typhoon Moving speed was extremely slow, and even a brief toward W retreat occurred (such as the shift from 142.3° E to 142.2° E on August 27), indicating its conducting flux was weak or at a saddle-type field, resulting in path curvature and a lack of clear direction.
As the system toward E broke the 144° E cross line, the Moving direction turned to the stable E toward, then gradually turned toward NE. Go to September, the Typhoon along Japan with the E ocean rapid toward high latitude advance, the latitude from 31.4° N rapidly climbed to 41.3° N, the length extends to 160° E near.
Fabian's Intensity development has a noticeable retardation and explosiveness. In the six-day period of wandering (August 24-29), its Intensity alwaysined at Nameless level, wind speed only 12-15m/s, development extremely slow. until August 30 toward EMoving, environmental conditions improved, the system rapidly improved, upgraded within two days by Tropical Storm to Severe Tropical Storm, and at September 1 reached Typhoon level. peak intensity appeared on September 2 at 18, center at 36.8°N, 154.7°E, max wind to 38m/s. It is worth noting that Typhoon did not immediately weaken after reaching the peak, butined high Intensity toward NMoving, until September 3 to Go higher latitudes weakened to Severe Tropical
In 1985, Fabian (198501) peaked only for Severe Tropical Storm, and in 1981 Fabian (198118) reached only Tropical Storm level. In 1988, Fabian not only reached Typhoon level Intensity, and Max Wind38m/s far above the same name, showing the huge difference of Typhoon Intensity in different years under the sequence of the name, also reflects the 1988 system gained more full development space under appropriate sea temperature and power conditions.
