Halong(200207) formed at the Northwest Pacific central low latitude surface (11.3°N,160.3°E), formed in the beginning (5-7 July) with W direction, the latitude once slightly S fall, moved to 8.7°N near, showing the "S behind the W line" of the untypical initial path. 7 days after the system turned to the stable W—NWW line, length from 158°E along the way to 133°E forward to E, across the central Pacific large ocean surface. July 13-14 before, in the Oulu Islands to the S area (about 22—26°N, 127—129°E) occurred a clear turn toward : the path from NW to N line, followed by NE, showing the typical "counterline" toward (recurring
