1997-09-30 18:00:00 After, Typhoon Ginger gradually weakened and was numbered off on 1997-09-30 18:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 38 track points.

Typhoon Ginger Trail Characteristics

Track Track and Turn toward characteristics

Typhoon Ginger (199719) 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 (9月21日至23日) , 系统位 at lat 10度附近, lng 168度至174度之间, 受低纬引导气流影响, 主要 toward WNW direction缓慢Moving. 随着The latitude逐渐升高, 其Moving direction发生显著调整. 9月24日至26日期间, 路径转为稳定的NW toward , 中心坐标从(15.3°N, 163.2°E)快速推进至(21.4°N, 159.7°E).

The key turn toward point appeared between September 27 and 28. During this period, the Typhoon center at 22 degrees to 25 degrees within the range, the length change slowed down even slightly W down, then began toward toward N and NE direction acceleration. After September 29, the system Go to medium-high latitude W wind belt, the path sharply turned toward NE, the center quickly moved to the lat 36 degrees to the N region, and finally at September 30 at 18 at reached 45.5 degrees, lng dispersed near 176.8 degrees.

Evolution of intensity and peak state

Ginger's intensity evolution underwent rapid enhancement, peak maintenance and degeneration weakening in three stages.The initial stage was Nameless, wind speed only 7m/s. After September 24 intensified into Tropical Storm, Go to rapid enhancement period, in just 48h from Severe Tropical Storm jumped to Super Typhoon.

Peak intensity appeared on September 27th at 12 o'clock, at this time the center Max Wind up to 74m/s,ined at Super Typhoon level. It is worth noting that during September 27th to 29th, despite the latitude continuously rising, the system still long Timeined Super Typhoon or high Intensity Typhoon level (wind speed 51m/s above) , showing extremely strong core structural stability. On September 29th at 18 o'clock, with toward High Latitude Moving, influenced by cold sea water and vertical wind switching, intensity rapidly decreased, by Typhoon degraded to Severe Tropical Storm, eventually in the high latitude ocean surface weakened. Compared to the historic Typhoon, in 1997 Ginger with the high wind speed of 74m
