Typhoon Songda trajectory
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Songda (201102) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific低纬度海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW行—转 toward NE”的抛物线形态. formed初期 (5月22日至24日) , 系统自9.4°N, 137.4°E附近 toward NW direction稳定Moving, 横穿Philippines以E洋面, 经度从137.4°E快速W移至130.2°E, 显示出较强的W行分量. 5月25日至26日期间, 随着纬度N抬至12.8°N以上, 路径逐渐转为N direction, 并在124.8°E附近达到最W端Position.
A key turning point occurred between May 27 and 28. As the center moved to 123°E–123.4°E, near 20°N latitude, guided by the flow along the edge of the subtropical high, the typhoon track made a significant turn from north to northeast. Subsequently, the system accelerated toward the southern waters of Japan, with its longitude rapidly expanding eastward from 123°E to 134.1°E and its latitude jumping northward to 32.8°N. Throughout this process, the typhoon did not make landfall on any landmass, remaining over the ocean at all times, and eventually weakened and dissipated in the cold sea surface temperatures at higher latitudes.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Songda has experienced extremely rapid improvement, is the representative of the Severe Typhoon in early 2011. from the May 22nd Tropical Storm (18m/s, 1000hPa) start, with only about 4 days Time explosion enhanced to Super Typhoon. especially in the period of May 25th 17th to 26th 23nd, max wind increased from 45m/s to 65m/s, the center lowest air pressure dropped to 910hPa, reaching its peak of life history.
From Super Typhoon (57m/s) to Severe Typhoon, then to May 29 weakened into Tropical Storm (23m/s, 985hPa), the entire process structure complete.
In comparison with the same name History, Songda's 2011 Intensity was significantly higher at the last year's similar name Typhoon . In 2022 Songda was only at Tropical Storm level (minimum atmospheric pressure 995hPa), in 2016 Songda peaked as Severe Typhoon (minimum atmospheric pressure 945hPa) . Even compared to Super Typhoon's 2004 Songda (minimum atmospheric pressure 920hPa), Songda's 2011 Pressure was lower (910hPa), wind speed was greater (65m/s vs not given specifically but usually 920hPa corresponded to wind speed slightly lower or equivalent), showing that in 2011 the code Typhoon had a stronger extreme Intensity characteristics.
