Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Vera (198923) 的生命周期始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体呈现典型的NW toward Moving后转 toward NE的抛物线型路径. formed初期 (9月11日至12日) , 系统在144°E至145°E附近徘徊, The latitude从17°N缓慢N移至18.7°N, During出现小幅W折, 显示其处 at 引导气流较弱的调整期. 9月12日中午起, 系统加速 toward NW, 经度迅速W进至131.9°E, 纬度同步N抬. 这一阶段Moving速度显著加快, 表明其受到副热带高压S侧E气流的稳定引导.

After September 14, with the latitude breaking 24°N, the path curvature gradually increased, Moving direction shifted from NW to NE. by September 16, the system center crossed 30°NGo to the mid-high latitude waters, eventually weakened dispersed near 34.4°N, 119.8°E. Thro the process, the Typhoon did not landfall any land, always in marine activity, the path was smooth and continuous, with no apparent twist or stagnation phenomenon, in line with the characteristics of typical ocean Typhoon influenced by the pre-wind belt flow toward.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

在Intensity变化方面, Vera经历了“ formed-增强-巅峰-减弱”的完整过程. 初始阶段为Nameless, max wind 10m/s. 经过约36h的整合与发展, at 9月13日00时升级为Tropical Storm (23m/s) , 并在同日12时达到生命史中的peak intensity, 定性为Severe Tropical Storm, max wind 录得25m/s. 值得注意的是, 其peak intensity维持Time极短, 仅半天后便因环境场变化开始减弱, 9月14日00时已回落至Tropical Storm级别 (23m/s) . 随后, 随着系统N上Go to 冷海水区及高The latitude高垂直风切变区域, intensity 持续衰减, 9月16日00时降级为Nameless, 最终消散.

Looking back at the historical record, in 1977, 1979 and 1986 the same name Typhoon both reached the 'Super Typhoon' level, in 1983 Vera also reached the 'Typhoon' level (minimum air pressure 967hPa) . In contrast, in 1989 Vera only reached Severe Tropical Storm intensity with max winds of 25m/s, failed to develop to Typhoon and above level.
