Track Track and Turn toward characteristics

Typhoon Namtheum (200410) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW行转NE”的抛物线形态. formed初期 (7月25日20时) , 系统位 at 23.6°N, 149.3°E, 随后稳定 toward NW. 在7月25日至7月28日期间, Typhoon 中心The latitude从23.6°N迅速N抬至31.4°N, During由149.3°EW进至140.8°E, 显示出较强的NW toward 引导气流作用.

The key turning point of the path appeared before July 29th. The data showed that on July 29th, at 08.00 to 20.00, the center latitude of the Typhoon remained unchanged at 31.5°N, while the length continued to W shift, indicating that at this time the system was at turn toward before the stagnation or slow adjustment period. Then, from July 30th, at 08.00, the path markedly turned to NE direction, the latitude continued to N up to 35.2°N, and the length toward E withdrew back to near 130.7°E. Thro the process, the Typhoon did not landfall any land, always in sea activity, and eventually decayed in high latitude waters.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

Namtheum’s Intensity change has undergone three stages of “fast enhancement – peak maintenance – gradual weakening”. Starting from the Tropical Storm (20m/s, 995hPa) on July 25, the system has been sharply strengthened in less than 48h. By July 26, 20h, it has been upgraded to Severe Typhoon (45m/s, 950hPa) ; at the peak of life on July 27, 08th, the center lowest air pressure dropped to 945hPa, max wind to 50m/s, confirmed to be Severe Typhoon level. The peak stateined about 12h, and since July 27, 20th began to slowly weaken, air pressure returned, wind speed declined. to August, as the latitude increased, the system further weakened into Tropical Storm.

Compared to the same name History, 2004 Namtheum's Intensity was significantly higher at most years. 2021 Namtheum (202119) and 2010 Namtheum (201008) peaked only for Tropical Storm, minimum pressure is 995hPa, far weak at 2004 individuals. It is worth noting that 2016 Namtheum (201612) also reached Severe Typhoon level, minimum pressure is also 945hPa, with 2004 Namtheum's peak intensity equal.
