Typhoon Dale, international code 199623, international name DALE, 1996 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 1996-11-02 00:00:00, ended: 1996-11-14 06:00:00. Peak intensity: Super Typhoon, minimum central pressure: 930 hPa, max wind: 71m/s.

Overview of Typhoon Dale

Typhoon Dale at 1996-11-02 00:00:00 at 9.1°N, 154°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.

It peaked at Super Typhoon intensity with max winds of 71 m/s (~256 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 930hPa, recorded at 1996-11-09 12:00:00.

1996-11-14 06:00:00 After, Typhoon Dale gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1996-11-14 06:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 50 track points.

Typhoon Dale Trail Characteristics

Track Track and Turn toward characteristics

Typhoon Dale (199623) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现显著的“先W后N再NE”的抛物线形态. formed初期 (11月2日至5日) , 系统在低The latitude海域 (约9°N-10°N) 维持缓慢的W行Moving, During从154°E移至152°E附近, 此时Intensity仅为Nameless至Tropical Storm级别. 11月6日至7日, 路径出现轻微N折并加速 toward W, 随后在11月8日至9日期间, 系统Go to 快速W移阶段, 经度由143.3°E迅速跨越至138.9°E.

As the latitude breaks 16°N, the system Moving direction takes a fundamental shift, from the W line to the NW line, and then at November 12th after completely turn toward NE. This turn toward process accompanied by the rapid increase of the latitude, from November 12th 24.9°N rapidly climbing to November 14th 43.6°N, the length also correspondingly toward E retreated to 174.8°E. During the entire life cycle, the Typhoon did not landfall any land, has always been active on the ocean, and eventually weakened in the high latitude waters.

Evolution of intensity and peak state

Dale's Intensity evolution underwent a typical 'slow enhancement - explosive enhancement - maintenance peak - rapid weakening' process. The early-stage Intensity growth slowed, until November 7th to reach Typhoon level (38m/s) . However, from November 8th, the system Go to rapid enhancement, short 48hwind speed jumped from 46m/s to 59m/s, and at November 10th reached the peak of life history, max wind recorded 71m/s, established as Super Typhoon level. It is noteworthy that during November 10th to 12th, despite the steady latitude rise, the system stillins the high Intensity range (59m/s-71m/s) in Typhoon or Severe Typhoon, showing extremely strong structural stability.

From November 13, as the system deep into the mid-high latitude cold sea waters and influenced by the W wind belt, the intensity began to decrease significantly, wind speed dropped to 46m/s (Severe Typhoon), and in 24h further weakened into Severe Tropical Storm (30m/s) . Compared to at other same name Typhoon, 1996's Dale with its 71m/s ultra high peak wind speed and several days of Super Typhoonined Time, showing rare late high Intensity characteristics, its no Landfall record also makes it a purely marine extreme weather process.
