Typhoon Sudal Trail Characteristics
Track and Turning Characteristics
Typhoon Sudal (200401) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific低纬度海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“抛物线”型Moving特征. formed初期 (4月8日至10日) , 系统位 at lat 9°至11°之间, 受副热带高压S侧E气流引导, 稳定 toward WNW. 在此期间, 经度从140.6°E快速W移至135.2°E, 横 toward 跨度显著.
The data showed that on April 12, 08:00 to 20:00, the Typhoon center length remained unchanged at 131°E, the latitude from 15.5°N to 16.1°N, indicating that at this time the system Moving speed slowed and Go to stagnant stage, then started toward NE direction. From April 13, the path clearly turned to NE toward, the length reverted toward E, and by April 16, the dispersal had reached 150.7°E. Thro the process, the Typhoon did not landfall anyland, was always on the ocean activity, and eventually weakened in the high latitude ocean.
Intensity evolution and peak maintenance
Sudal’s Intensity change underwent three stages of “fast enhancement – peak maintenance – slow weakening”.Starting from Typhoon level (35m/s, 970hPa) on April 8, the system rapidly intensified into Severe Typhoon within 24h, and at April 9 at 20:00 reached peak intensity, max wind 50m/s, minimum pressure 940hPa.
It is worth noting is the persistence of its peak state. From April 9 20:00 to April 14 08:00, for almost 5 days, Sudal alwaysined at Severe Typhoon level, wind speedined at the range of 45-50m/s, air pressure stable at 940-950hPa. This long Time high Intensityined in W.Pac Pacific Early Season Typhoon is more rare. After April 14 20:00, with the latitude rising to 22.2°N above, the system began to weaken, wind speed dropped to 40m/s below, air pressure rebounded. By April 16 14:00, intensity dropped to Tropical Storm (20m/s, 990hPa) , life history ended. Compared to at other same name or the same period Typhoon, Sudal in April reached the Severe Typhoon
