The SummaryTyphoon Ruth (international code 199123) is a 1991 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity Super Typhoon, max wind 74m/s, minimum central pressure 895hPa, not in China Landfall, 1991-10-31 was numbered off, recording 62 track points.
Typhoon Ruth, international code 199123, international name RUTH, 1991 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1991-10-16 00:00:00, ended: 1991-10-31 06:00:00. Peak intensity: Super Typhoon, minimum central pressure: 895 hPa, max wind: 74m/s.
Typhoon Ruth at 1991-10-16 00:00:00 at 6°N, 156°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Super Typhoon intensity with max winds of 74 m/s (~266 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 895hPa, recorded at 1991-10-24 06:00:00.
1991-10-31 06:00:00 After, Typhoon Ruth gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1991-10-31 06:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 62 track points.
Typhoon Ruth (199123)'s life began at the Northwest Pacific low-latitude zone (6°N, 156°E) on October 16, 1991, with the initial state of Nameless.In the early formed, the system presented a stable WNMovingTrend, between October 16 and October 24, where its central coordinates moved from 156°E continuous to 132.3°E, and the latitude rose from 6°N slow to 15.3°N. This phase of pathway was smooth, with no sharp turn toward, showing its main sub-tropical high-pressure S-side guided airflow.
After October 24, the system continued toward NW and gradually approached the Philippines to the E area, but on October 28 reached near 120.3°E, Moving direction turned to NE. Before the disintegration of the typhoon track from October 29 to October 31, the Center from 120.7°E toward E retreated to 127.5°E, the latitude further increased to N to 23.5°N. This former NW reversal toward NE path shape, in line with the typical Typhoon's reversal toward characteristic that occurs in the middle latitude influenced by the pre-air flow of the W wind belt.
Ruth's Intensity evolution underwent rapid enhancement, peak maintenance and rapid weakening in three stages. Starting from October 16's 7m/sNameless, system at October 22 intensified into Severe Tropical Storm (30m/s) . Then Go to explosive enhancement period, with only about one and a half days of Time, until October 23th at 12 am has jumped to Super Typhoon (64m/s) . October 24th at 18 am reached life peak, max wind recorded 74m/s, establishing its Super Typhoon status. peak intensityined about two days after, since October 26th began to weaken, down to October 28th at Severe Tropical Storm, finally at October 31 with NamelessIntensity dispersed at sea.
Data show that Ruth peaked in 1994 only for Tropical Storm, in 1987 for Nameless, in 1983 for Severe Tropical Storm, even the stronger in 1980 Ruth only reached Typhoon level. in contrast, in 1991 Ruth not only reached Super Typhoon level, and Max Wind up to 74m/s, is the strongest of the same name cycle, the destruction of potential.
