The SummaryTyphoon Higos (international code 200221) is a 2002 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity Super Typhoon, max wind 69m/s, minimum central pressure 904hPa, not in China Landfall, 2002-10-02 was numbered off, recorded 30 track points.
Typhoon Higos, international code 200221, international name HIGOS, 2002 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 2002-09-25 00:00:00, ended: 2002-10-02 06:00:00. Peak intensity: Super Typhoon, minimum central pressure: 904 hPa, max wind: 69m/s.
Typhoon Higos at 2002-09-25 00:00:00 at 14.7°N, 162.5°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Super Typhoon intensity with max winds of 69 m/s (~248 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 904hPa, recorded at 2002-09-29 12:00:00.
2002-10-02 06:00:00 After, Typhoon Higos gradually weakened and was numbered off on 2002-10-02 06:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 30 track points.
Typhoon Higos (2002年第21号) 的生命周期始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW—N—NE”抛物线型转 toward 特征. formed初期 (9月25日至26日) , 系统位 at 14.7°N, 162.5°E附近, 受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响, 稳定 toward WN. 随着The latitude逐渐升高, 至9月28日左右, 路径曲率开始显现, Moving direction由NW转为正N. 9月30日后, 系统Go to 中高纬度W风带控制区, 路径发生显著转折, 加速 toward NE, 最终 at 10月2日在46.2°N, 142°E附近 weakened into Severe Tropical Storm并结束观测. 全过程中, 该Typhoon 未Landfall任何陆地, 始终在洋面上活动, 其路径平滑且连续, 无明显停滞或打转现象, 体现了成熟Typhoon 在开阔洋面上的典型动力学行为.
Higos' Intensity evolution experienced rapid enhancement, peak maintenance and rapid weakening in three stages. Starting from Nameless (1006hPa) on September 25, the system exploded in just four days. Especially during September 28-29 Pressure dropped from 976hPa to 904hPa, max wind jumped to 69m/s, to Super Typhoon level. This rapid deepening process showed that the ocean heat content was extremely high and the vertical wind switch was favorable. After the peak stateined about 24h, with the latitude N rising to 25°NN, the sea temperature and dry air flow caused the intensity to slow down, but during the turn toward NETime continued to maintain Super TyphoonIntensity (933hPa) , until October 1 toGo's high latitude zone was drastically weakened
与历届同名Typhoon 相比, 2002年Higos的Intensity具有压倒性优势. 其最低气压904hPa远低 at 2015年Higos (945hPa) , 2020年Higos (970hPa) 以及2008年和2026年的Tropical Storm级别系统. 数据显示, 2002年Higos是所列年份中唯一达到Super Typhoon等级的个体, 其巅峰wind speed和低压深度均创下该名称Typhoon 的极值, 反映出当年秋季Northwest Pacific海域极其Active的Typhoon formed环境.
