Typhoon Nuri, international code 200812, international name NURI, 2008 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 2008-08-18 08:00:00, ended: 2008-08-23 14:00:00. Peak intensity: Typhoon , minimum central pressure: 960 hPa, max wind: 40m/s.

Overview of Typhoon Nuri

Typhoon Nuri at 2008-08-18 08:00:00 at 15.7°N, 133.4°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Tropical Storm.

It peaked at Typhoon intensity with max winds of 40 m/s (~144 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 960hPa, recorded at 2008-08-20 02:00:00.

2008-08-23 14:00:00 After, Typhoon Nuri gradually weakened and was numbered off on 2008-08-23 14:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 78 track points.

Characteristics of Typhoon Nuri

Path and Moving Characteristics

In 2008, the life cycle of the 12th Typhoon “Nuri” began at the Northwest Pacific Ocean, the overall path showed a stable WNTrend. From the formed early 133.4°E to the 112.3°E before disintegration, its length span exceeds 20 latitudes, showing a strong toward W propulsion. During the Moving, the Typhoon center latitude from 15.7°N gradually increased to 23.3°N, with no apparent path curvature or large range turn toward, indicating that it was more sustained and stable influenced by the tropical high-pressure guided airflow. Though the path was flat, but as the latitude rose and approached the land edge, the Moving speed was slightly adjusted in the post-period, eventually weakening dispers

Intensity Analysis

“Nuri”经历了典型的快速增强至巅峰维持, 随后逐渐减弱的生命史. formed初期为Tropical Storm (18m/s, 998hPa) , 在约30h内迅速 intensified into Typhoon 级别. 8月20日08:00至22:00期间, Typhoon 达到peak intensity, 中心最低气压降至960hPa, max wind 维持在40m/s, 并在该Intensity等级上保持了约14h的稳定期. 此后, 随着系统 toward NMoving并受到环境因素影响, intensity 开始缓慢下降. 8月21日晚至22日上午, wind speed由38m/s逐步降至35m/s, 气压回升至970hPa. Go to 8月22日下午后, 减弱速度加快, 由Typhoon 级降为Severe Tropical Storm, 最终 at 8月23日14:00 weakened into Nameless (14m/s, 1000hPa) 并结束code. 整个过程体现了中等IntensityTyphoon 的典型热力结构变化.

Comparison of historical names

Compare the 2008 'Nuri' with previously the same name Typhoon, its Intensity is significantly high at recent parts of the same name system, but weak at historically strong cases. 2020 and 2026, the same name Typhoon peak intensity is only at the Tropical Storm level (minimum air pressure 990hPa and 998hPa) , far less than the 2008 'Nuri' Typhoon level peak (960hPa) . However, compared with the 2014 20th Typhoon 'Nuri', the 2008 system's Intensity gap is obvious, the latter has reached the Super Typhoon level, the minimum pressure is low to 920hPa.
