Path and Moving Characteristics

In 2009 the 6th Typhoon “Molave” life story began at Northwest Pacific Ocean, the overall path presents a stable NW toward MovingTrend. From July 15th at 20am at (14.5°N, 127.1°E) formed Nameless, the system continued toward NW direction push, until July 19th at 20am at (23.8°N, 109.6°E) weakened into Nameless and ended observations. During the entire life cycle, the Typhoon did not show any noticeable path toward or fold phenomenon, the latitude from 14.5°N steadily rising to 23.8°N, through the degree from 127.1°EW to 109.6°E, cross-crossed more than 17 degrees. Despite the plane, but its Moving speed varies in different

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

The Intensity evolution of “Molave” underwent a typical “formed-enhanced-top-weakened” process. The initial phase of development was slow, from Nameless to Severe Tropical Storm taking about two days. However, between July 17, 18 and July 18, 22, the system Go to Rapid Enhancement, Pressure dropped sharply from 980hPa to a minimum of 965hPa, max wind climbed from 28m/s to a peak of 38m/s, to the typhoon level. It is worth noting that the data record of July 18, 14 showed wind speed35m/s but ranked as Nameless, which may reflect the complexity of the eye wall or structural adjustment period at the time, and then the system re-established Typhoon Intensity and reached the peak at the evening

In 2015, Molave was only at Tropical Storm level (minimum atmospheric pressure 990hPa), with a weaker intensity; and in 2020, Molave developed to Severe Typhoon (minimum atmospheric pressure 950hPa).
