Track Track and Turn toward characteristics

Typhoon Todd (199806) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现典型的“抛物线”型Moving特征. formed初期 (9月14日至16日) , 系统自19.4°N, 126.1°E附近 toward NW direction稳定Moving, The latitude缓慢N抬, During持续E进, 显示出受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响的典型特征.

The key turn toward node appeared before September 17th. Data showed that on September 17th at 06:00 pm the center position at 23.3°N, 134.7°E, then at 18:00 p.m. moved to 26.5°N, 134.5°E, the length changes very small or even tiny W retreat, marking the system reached the very end of E and began to turn toward . After that, the path obviously turned to NE, and at September 18th at 06:00 p.m. accelerated N up to 29.8°N. Go to E sea area, after being affected by the pre-wind belt airflow, the path further toward adjustment EN, eventually at 30°NN to, 121°E-124°E to wander weaker.

Evolution of intensity and peak state

The Typhoon underwent a complete process of rapidly weakening after rapid enhancement to peak.From September 14’s Nameless (10m/s) start, the system completed the crossing from Tropical Storm to Severe Typhoon in 48h.Especially during September 16’s 18:00 to September 17’s 06:00 12h, the max wind rose from 46m/s to 66m/s, reaching the Super Typhoon level, which is also the peak intensity in its history.

However, the peakins a shorter time. on September 17, 18:00, wind speed has fallen to 51m/s, showing Intensity begins to decline. As the latitude rises and the underground conditions change, the system Go to rapid weakening period: on September 18, 06:00 to Typhoon level (35m/s) , on September 19, 06:00 further weakened into Severe Tropical Storm (28m/s) . by September 20, the system has been degraded to Nameless, max wind remains only 12m/s, structure tends to disperse. Compared to at other same name Typhoon, the 199680 Todd showed extremely high explosive power during its short lifetime, but its high Intensity range mainly concentrated in the low latitude of the ocean, without causing a direct forcewind impact on land.
