According to the observation data, its path overall presents a stable NE toward MovingTrend, no apparent Landfall behavior or sharp turn toward . The initial phase (May 15, 14 to 23 pm) , the system position at Philippines to E surface, the center coordinates from (19.3°N, 125.5°E) to move (21.4°N, 127.6°E), Moving direction is mainly NE. Followed by Go to acceleration period, May 16, morning to morning, the latitude rapidly from 22.9°N to 24.7°N, longitudinal synchronous toward toward to Eward to 131.4°E, showing the guiding air flow stronger and stable. In the end of life (51614 to 20 pm) , Typhoon center further into direction toward NEorthwest Pacific, finally stopping in a single

May 15 at 14 am first born as Nameless (16m/s, 998hPa) and upgraded to Tropical Storm after 6h. It is worth noting that during May 15 at 20 am to 16:05 pm, although Position continues to move, its Pressure remains at 998hPa, wind speed remains at 18m/s, at a short platform period. May 16 at 08 am, the system is reinforced again, air pressure drops to 995hPa, wind speed increases to 20m/s; and at 11 am at the day reaches peak intensity, minimum pressure 990hPa, max wind 23m/s. Until then dispersed, intensity has not changed
Data show that the same-name Typhoon peak intensity in 2014 and 2025 reached the Severe Typhoon level, the minimum pressure is lower than 955hPa; 2019 'Matmo' is also Severe Tropical Storm (992hPa).
