Typhoon Orchid Trail Characteristics

Track Track and Turn toward characteristics

Typhoon Orchid (199427) 的生命史始 at 1994年9月16日00:00的Northwest Pacific洋面, 初始Position位 at 12°N, 128°E, formed时为Nameless. 在生命初期, 系统主要呈现 toward WN的Trend, 至9月18日12:00到达最W端约141°E附近. 随后, 受大气环流引导气流变化影响, typhoon track出现显著转折. 从9月19日至9月22日, 其Moving direction逐渐由W行转为NW行, 并在9月22日后稳定转 toward NE. 整个路径呈现出典型的“抛物线”型轨迹, 未触及任何陆地, 全程在海上活动. 随着The latitude不断升高, Typhoon 加速 toward 高纬度海域推进, 最终 at 10月1日12:00在50.5°N, 143°E weakened into Nameless并结束观测, 总生命周期长达15.5天, track points多达63个, 显示出其在广阔洋面上长距离移行的特征.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

In terms of intensity evolution, Orchid underwent a complete formed, development, peak maintenance and decline process. The system enhanced to Tropical Storm on 19 September, developed to Typhoon on 22 September, and at 23 September rapidly intensified into Severe Typhoon. on 24 September at 18:00, its Max Wind reached 66m/s, advanced to Super Typhoon, andined this extremely high Intensity in the following days. The data showed that from 24 September to 28 September, the Typhoonined the Super Typhoon level for several days in a row, of which 24 September and 26 September wind speed was 66m/s, until 27 September stillined 59m/s high wind speed, indicating its core structure stable and full of energy.

Its Max Wind69m/s (note: top data given by the theme) makes it at Super Typhoon level. In comparison, 1991 Orchid (199121) although the same as Super Typhoon, but 1987 (198701) and 1980 (198013) Orchid only reach Severe Typhoon level.
