Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Haitang (200505) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“W行—NW行—N折”形态. formed初期 (7月12日) , 系统位 at 150.9°E附近, 随后稳定 toward WS, 至7月16日抵达131.9°E海域. 在此期间, The latitude从23.4°N缓慢降至19.5°N, 显示出受副热带高压S侧引导气流影响的典型低纬W行特征.

Early in the morning of July 17, when the center length shifted to 126.7°E, the path showed a significant shift, Moving direction from pure W toward to NW toward, and gradually toward N increased. this turn toward process accompanied by the intense change of Intensity, the system reached the most N-end latitude peak prefix when approaching the 125°E-122°E. Go to Taiwan Strait and the surrounding waters after July 18-19), the path continued toward N advance, the length from 121.4°EW to 117.2°E, the latitude continued to rise from 23.5°N to 28.1°N. Thro the process, Typhoon did not record Landfall, always completed its life cycle at sea, eventually weakened in Fujiancoastal

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

Haitang's Intensity evolution has the characteristics of 'fast enhancement, peak maintenance, rapid decline'. Starting with the Tropical Storm (18m/s, 1000hPa) on July 12, the system has been sharply strengthened within 4 days. Especially between July 16 and 17, the Pressure dropped from 945hPa to 910hPa, the max wind jumped to 65m/s, reaching the Super Typhoon level.

From the morning of July 18, as the system approached land and environmental fields changed, the intensity began to decline rapidly, and the process of weakening from the Severe Typhoon (50m/s) to the Tropical Storm (18m/s) took only about 2 days, showing its structure was severely damaged in the later stages.

Its peak air pressure is 910hPa far lower at 2017 Haitang (984hPa), 2011 Haitang (995hPa) and 2022 Haitang (998hPa) . The latter three peak intensity is only for Tropical Storm level, while 2005 Haitang is Super Typhoon, max wind 65m/s is more than other times of the same name Typhoon.
