Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Faith (199812) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific低The latitude海域, 整体路径呈现显著的W行Trend, 并在后期出现微弱的N折. formed初期 (12月7日至9日) , 系统位 at 6.1°N至10.9°N之间, During从141°E快速W移至130.6°E, Moving direction稳定为W toward , 日均经度跨度约10度, 显示出在深厚E风气流引导下的快速W进特征.

During December 10-12, the Typhoon center latitudeined fluctuations within the narrow range of 10.6°N to 12.2°N, the length continued toward W advancing to 112.5°E, this phase path straight W line. It is worth noting that from December 13, as the system approached the S peninsula coastal, the latitude began to gradually rise from 11°N to 15.1°N, the length W speed slowed, the path turned toward NW direction, and finally dispersed at 106.2°E near December 14th at 18.

Evolution of intensity and peak state

The Typhoon underwent a complete “formed-enhanced-top-weakened” process.The initial phase was Nameless, wind speed only 10m/s. During the toward WMoving, the intensity rapidly climbed: at 18 a.m. on December 9th to Tropical Storm (20m/s), at 06 a.m. on December 10th to further intensified into Severe Tropical Storm (30m/s), and at 18 a.m. to reach the Typehoon level (33m/s).

The wind speed jumped from 41m/s to 46m/s within 12 hours, reaching Severe Typhoon level, which is also the peak intensity in its life history. Peak stateined about 18h (December 11, 18am to December 12, 06am), while Max Wind remained at 46m/s. Then Intensity began to slowly decline, Dec. 12, 18am to 43m/s, 13th further weakened into Typhoon level (41m/s to 33m/s) . Go to dispersal phase, wind speed drastically declined, Dec. 14,06 at Tropical Storm (23m/s), finally returned to NamelessIntensity (10m/s) at 18am and was numbered off.
