Characteristics of Typhoon Xangsane

Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Xangsane (200020) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现显著的“NW-N-NE”抛物线型转 toward 特征. formed初期 (10月25日至27日) , 系统自8.6°N, 137.2°E附近 toward NW direction稳定Moving, The latitude由8.6°N升至13.7°N, During由137.2°EW移至123.6°E, 这一阶段主要受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响. 10月28日至29日期间, Moving速度明显放缓, 路径在118°E至119°E附近出现近乎停滞的徘徊现象, 纬度仅从14.2°N缓慢N抬至16.2°N, 显示此时环境引导气流较弱或存在多系统相互作用.

The system began to accelerate toward NE, extending the length from 118.7°E rapidly to 129.4°E, and the latitude jumped from 16.8°N sharply to 31.9°N. This significant turn toward usually marks the Typhoon Go to W wind belt front area, accelerated away from the tropical waters by SW air flow.

Evolution of intensity and peak state

Xangsane的Intensity变化经历了“快速增强-波动调整-二次爆发-迅速减弱”的过程. 初生时为Nameless (10m/s) , 在NW行过程中迅速加强, at 10月27日达到Typhoon 级别 (33m/s) . 随后在10月28日至29日的徘徊期间, intensity 出现波动, 曾短暂 weakened into Severe Tropical Storm (28m/s) , 但 at 10月29日晚重新 intensified into Typhoon .

The most notable Intensity eruption occurred on October 30, max wind jumped to 46m/s in a short Time, reaching Severe Typhoon level, and this Intensityined about 36h (to October 31, 06:00) . This is the peak of the Typhoon life history. As the path shifted toward NE and Go to High latitude waters, affected by decreasing sea temperature and increasing vertical wind cuts, the system rapidly weakened. November 1, 06:00 down to Typhoon level (33m/s), until disintegration has weakened into Tropical Storm (23m/s) . Compared to at other same name Typhoon, 2000 Xangsane stillined longer TimeSevere TyphoonIntensity without Landfall, showing its core structure tightness and stability.
