Typhoon Faxai, international code 200721, international name FAXAI, 2007 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 2007-10-26 08:00:00, ended: 2007-10-27 14:00:00. Peak intensity: Tropical Storm, minimum central pressure: 990 hPa, max wind: 23m/s.

Overview of Typhoon Faxai

Typhoon Faxai at 2007-10-26 08:00:00 at 23°N, 131.8°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Tropical Storm.

It peaked at Tropical Storm intensity with max winds of 23 m/s (~83 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 990hPa, recorded at 2007-10-26 23:00:00.

2007-10-27 14:00:00 After, Typhoon Faxai gradually weakened and was numbered off on 2007-10-27 14:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 9 track points.

Typhoon Faxai Route Characteristics

Characteristics of Moving Path

Typhoon Faxai (2007 No. 21 Tropical Storm) has a short life history, from formed to dispersed only about 30h. According to the observation data, its path shows a significant 'first N after NE' toward feature. In the initial phase (October 26, 08:00 to 14:00) , system position at lat 23° to 24°N, 131.4° to 131.8° ocean, main toward NNW direction slow Moving, length slightly W Moving.

值得注意的是, 该Typhoon 在后期表现出极强的Moving速度. 特别是在10月27日02:00至14:00期间, The latitude从26.7°N迅速跃升至33.4°N, During从132.9°E大幅E移至139.9°E. 这一阶段系统在12h内 toward N推进了约6.7个纬度, toward E跨越了7个经度, 表明其深受中高纬度W风带引导气流影响, Moving速率显著加快, 并迅速远离大陆架Go to 开阔洋面. 全程无Landfall记录, 未对陆地造成直接冲击.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

In terms of intensity, Faxai has always remained at the Tropical Storm level, not developed as Severe Tropical Storm or Typhoon . Its central minimum air pressure has gradually decreased from the initial 998hPa, with the max wind increased from 18m/s to 23m/s. The peak state appeared between 23:00 and 14:00 on October 26th, when the Pressure is stable at 990hPa and the max wind remains at 23m/s. Overall, the system's Intensity variation is smaller, and after a short reinforcement process goes to the maintenance phase, until the end of its life history.

For example, the 15th Typhoon “Faxai” in 2019 reached Super Typhoon level and caused severe disasters to Japan’s E region; while the 16th Typhoon “Faxai” in 2002 also reached Typhoon level Intensity.
