1989-08-19 12:00:00 After, Typhoon Owen gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1989-08-19 12:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 63 track points.
Analysis of Typhoon Owen's Track Characteristics
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Owen (198916) 的生命史长达15.5天, 整体呈现典型的NW toward Moving后转 toward NE的抛物线型路径. formed初期 (8月4日至8月10日) , 系统位 at 低Latitude海域, 从6°N, 159°E附近稳定 toward NW, Longitude由159°EW移至141.6°E, 纬度N抬至15.7°N, 此阶段Moving速度相对均匀. 8月11日至8月12日期间, 路径出现短暂的EW toward 摆动, Center在144.8°E至148.5°E之间徘徊, 显示引导气流存在不确定性.
As the system N rises to 20°N by N, the path gradually turns to N, then rapidly turns toward NE direction. August 15 to August 19, Typhoon accelerates toward High Latitude Ocean Moving, the latitude rises sharply from 27.2°N to 49°N, and the length decreases from 150.1°EE to 155.2°E. During the entire life cycle, the Typhoon has not landfall any land, has always been active on the open ocean surface, and eventually at 49 degrees weakened dispersion.
Intensity Evolution & Historical Comparison
In the first 10 days of life history (August 4th to August 13th), the system longined the Tropical Depression or weak Tropical Storm state, wind speed fluctuated between 7m/s to 17m/s, increased slowly. until August 14th, when the center moved to 20.8°N, 152.3°E, intensity suddenly jumped to Typhoon, max wind to 33m/s. The next day (August 15th) reached peak intensity, max wind 38m/s, at this time the center position at 27.2°N, 150.1°E. The peak duration Time was shorter, after August 16th Intensity began to fall, wind speed dropped to 33m/s, and rapidly weakened after the height of the latitude, August 17th dropped to Tropical, finally at
In comparison, Owen (199027) and Owen (198222) both reached the Super Typhoon level, with minimum pressure lower than 925hPa and 940hPa respectively; even the weaker 1994 Owen (199401) and 1986 Owen (198606) , their minimum pressure was also 980hPa and 985hPa respectively.
