Typhoon Sonca, international code 200503, international name SONCA, 2005 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 2005-04-23 08:00:00, ended: 2005-04-27 14:00:00. Peak intensity: Severe Typhoon, minimum central pressure: 950 hPa, max wind: 45m/s.
Typhoon Sonca at 2005-04-23 08:00:00 at 11.6°N, 132.8°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Tropical Storm.
It peaked at Severe Typhoon intensity with max winds of 45 m/s (~162 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 950hPa, recorded at 2005-04-24 20:00:00.
2005-04-27 14:00:00 After, Typhoon Sonca gradually weakened and was numbered off on 2005-04-27 14:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 16 track points.
Typhoon Sonca (200503) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现显著的“先NW后NE”的抛物线型轨迹. formed初期 (4月23日08时) , 系统位 at 11.6°N, 132.8°E附近, 受引导气流影响 toward NW. 在4月24日08时至20时期间, 其During变化极小 (从130.8°E至130.7°E再回至130.8°E) , 表明系统在达到peak intensity前经历了一段短暂的近乎停滞或缓慢N抬的过程, 这为其Intensity的快速积聚提供了有利的环境条件.
After 02:00 on April 25, there was a noticeable turning of the path, Moving direction gradually shifted from NW to NE. As the latitude continued to rise, the system accelerated toward the ocean-deep Moving. By April 27, 14 before dispersing, the Center had reached 26.7°N, 145.7°E. Thro its life cycle, the Typhoon did not landfall any land, continued to be active at sea, eventually debilitating in the high latitude waters.
Starting from the Tropical Storm (18m/s, 996hPa) on 23 April at 8 p.m., at less than 36h, at 24 April at 20 p.m. develops into the Severe Typhoon, reaching peak intensity: Max Wind45m/s, minimum pressure 950hPa.
Then, as the system toward High latitude Moving and Go to adverse environment, intensity began to slowly decline. on April 26 at 14 am to Typhoon level (40m/s), until April 27 at 08 am further weakened into Severe Tropical Storm.
Its peak intensity is Severe Typhoon level, minimum pressure up to 950hPa; while 2022 Sonca (202219) and 2017 Sonca (201708) peak only for Tropical Storm level, minimum pressure is 998hPa and 990hPa respectively; even the relatively strong 2011 Sonca (201116) , its peak is only Typhoon level (975hPa) .
