Path and Moving Characteristics

Typhoon Prapiroon (200606) 的生命史始 at S海E部海域, 整体呈现稳定的NW toward MovingTrend. 从2006年8月1日14时的初始Position (17°N, 117.8°E) 至8月5日01时消散 at (23.2°N, 107.7°E) , 其路径跨度约6个The latitude及10个During. 在Moving过程中, Typhoon 未出现明显的路径转折或停滞现象, 始终维持NW direction行进. 值得注意的是, 该Typhoon 全程无Landfall记录, 主要活动区域集中在开阔海面及近海海域, 最终在Guangxi附近海域减弱消散. 这种“近海平行”或“擦边而过”的路径特征, 使其对coastal area的影响主要体现为大风和外围雨带, 而非直接的中心Landfall冲击.

Intensity Analysis

该Typhoon 的Intensity变化经历了典型的“快速增强—巅峰维持—逐渐减弱”过程. formed初期为Tropical Storm (18m/s) , 在不到24h内迅速 intensified into Severe Tropical Storm, 并 at 8月2日18时升级为Typhoon . 8月3日00时, Typhoon 达到peak intensity, 中心最低气压降至970hPa°E, max wind 达35m/s. 巅峰状态维持Time较短, 随后受环境因素影响, intensity 开始缓慢波动下降. 从8月3日06时起, wind speed回落至33m/s并维持数h, 直至8月4日00时再次降级为Severe Tropical Storm. 此后, 随着 toward NMoving, 系统结构进一步松散, wind speed持续降低, at 8月4日18时 weakened into Nameless, 最终在8月5日凌晨 was numbered off. 整个过程显示其在接近陆地前已度过最强盛时期.

Comparison of historical names

In the named sequence 'Prapiroon', the Typhoon Intensity of 2006 is at the middle level. Compared with the 21st Typhoon Prapiroon (top Severe Typhoon, 940hPa) in 2012, the Intensity of 2006 is significantly weaker, the air pressure is higher than 30hPa. Compared with the 4th Typhoon Prapiroon (top Severe Tropical Storm, 982hPa) in 2024, the 2006 version of the Intensity is stronger, reaching the Typehoon level. However, it is completely consistent with the 7th Typhoon Prapiroonpeak intensity of 2018 and the minimum pressure is 970hPa, showing some re-existence of the Typhoon Intensity under the name.
