Analysis of Typhoon Lewis

Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Lewis (199303) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现显著的W行Trend, 未发生明显的N上转 toward 或Landfall行为. formed初期 (7月4日至5日) , 系统在低The latitude海域 (约8°N-9°N) 维持缓慢的WSMoving, Center从137°E移至132.1°E, 此时Intensity稳定在Nameless级别. 自7月6日起, 系统移速加快并转为稳定的正W, 穿越Philippines以E洋面. Go to S海后, 路径保持 toward WN微调, 最终 at 7月13日在Vietnam以E海域 (102°E附近) 减弱消散. 全生命周期内, 该Typhoon 始终位 at 海上, 无Landfall记录, 其路径形态属 at 典型的远洋W行型, 受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响显著, 路径曲率较小, Moving规律性较强.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

在Intensity变化方面, Lewis经历了完整的“ formed-发展-巅峰-衰减”过程. 系统在Nameless阶段维持Time较长 (约4天) , 直至7月8日傍晚才增强为Tropical Storm. 随后Go to 快速增强期, 仅用不到两天Time, max wind 从23m/s跃升至43m/s, at 7月10日06:00达到Severe Typhoon级巅峰状态. 值得注意的是, 巅峰过后Intensity迅速回落, 从Severe Typhoon减弱至Nameless仅耗时约2天半, 显示出其在接近陆地或Go to 不利环境时结构瓦解较快.

In contrast to the same name History, in 1993 Lewis's Intensity far surpassed the 2nd Typehoon Lewis in 1990. the same name Typhoon peak intensity in 1990 was only Nameless, failed to develop into a higher level of tropical cyclone; and in 1993 Lewis not only succeeded in developing to Severe Typhoon, max wind reached 43m/s, and the life history was longer, and the impact was wider.
