Typhoon Dale Trail Characteristics

Track and Movement Characteristics

Typhoon Dale (199623) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW行-N转-NE移”抛物线形态. formed初期 (11月5日至7日) , 系统位 at 低纬度洋面 (约10°N-11.5°N) , 受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响, 稳定 toward WNW, 经度从152.2°E快速W进至147.2°E. 11月8日至9日, 随着纬度略微N抬至13.7°N, Moving direction逐渐转为正N, 并在11月10日达到路径最W端附近 (132.8°E-135.2°E区间) .

A critical turning point occurred from November 11 to 12. After its center moved beyond 20°N, the track turned sharply to the right under the influence of flow ahead of a trough in the westerlies, shifting from northward to northeastward movement. The typhoon then accelerated toward higher latitudes, with longitude rapidly increasing from 131.1°E to 147.5°E and latitude climbing to 32.7°N. It made no landfall during its entire lifecycle, remained over the open ocean throughout, and finally weakened and dissipated in the mid- to high-latitude seas.

Intensity Evolution and Peak Status

Dale’s intensity underwent a complete cycle of formation, rapid intensification, maintenance, and weakening. It began as a tropical depression, then rapidly intensified into a severe tropical storm within 48 hours. After becoming a typhoon on November 8, it entered a period of rapid intensification. Particularly during the 12-hour period from 14:00 on November 9 to 02:00 on November 10, central pressure plummeted from 945 hPa to 930 hPa, while maximum wind speed surged from 45 m/s to 55 m/s, reaching super typhoon status. This marked the peak intensity of its lifetime.

Peak intensity was maintained for a relatively short time. From 14:00 on November 10, intensity began fluctuating and declining, but remained at the severe typhoon level (50 m/s, 940 hPa) for about 36 hours. In the early hours of November 12, as the system moved northward into higher latitudes, increased vertical wind shear and cooler sea temperatures disrupted its structure. Intensity rapidly fell to typhoon strength, and it eventually weakened into a severe tropical storm on November 13. Compared with previous typhoons of the same name, Dale in 1996 reached exceptionally high intensity over the open ocean (930 hPa), demonstrating its strong explosive potential under favorable oceanic thermal conditions. However, its track did not directly affect land.
