Typhoon Wukong, international code 201225, international name Wukong, 2012 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 2012-12-25 08:00:00, ended: 2012-12-27 02:00:00. Peak intensity: Tropical Storm, minimum central pressure: 998 hPa, max wind: 20m/s.
Typhoon Wukong at 2012-12-25 08:00:00 at 10.3°N, 128.6°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Tropical Storm.
It peaked at Tropical Storm intensity with max winds of 20 m/s (~72 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 998hPa, recorded at 2012-12-26 02:00:00.
2012-12-26 00:00:00, Typhoon Wukong in Landfall.
Typhoon Wukong gradually weakened and was numbered off on 2012-12-27 02:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 12 track points.
Typhoon Wukong (201225)'s life history is shorter, from formed to dispersed only about 42h. According to the observation data, its overall Moving path shows a stable WN direction. Initial phase (December 25, 08:00 to 14:00) , system position at Philippines at E surface (10.3°N, 128.6°E near) , short stagnation after length moves from 128.6°E rapid W to 127.2°E, latitude remains at 10.3°N unchanged, showing initial conductive flow is weak or there is adjustment process.
The Typhoon's most notable trail feature was at December 26 at about 00:00 at the Landfall of Wright Island. After the landfall, the system did not immediately weaken dispersed, but continued toward NW direction across the land Go to the Sea of Soros region. During December 26 at 11:00 to 17:00, the latitude was stable at 11.5°N, the length moved from 122.3°E to 121.2°E, indicating that itined a consistent transition rate and direction during the transit of the island and sea area. Until the end of life (December 27 at 02:00) , the system center was positioned at 11.6°N, 119.6°E, the overall path smoothed, with no apparent big angle turning toward or turning phenomenon.
在Intensity变化方面, Typhoon Wukong表现为“先稳后微强再减弱”的特征. formed初期至Landfall前, Pressure维持在1000hPa, max wind 保持18m/s. 在接近并Landfall莱特岛前后 (12月26日02:00至11:00) , 系统Intensity达到巅峰, minimum pressure 降至998hPa, max wind 增至20m/s, 等级维持为Tropical Storm. 值得注意的是, 系统在Landfall后仍维持了约12h的peak intensity, 随后才逐渐减弱. 12月26日14:00起, wind speed回落至18m/s, 气压回升至1000hPa; 至12月27日02:00, 进一步 weakened into Nameless, wind speed降至16m/s, 气压升至1004hPa.
Its peak intensity (Tropical Storm, 998hPa) was equal to Wukong (202408) in 2024, but markedly weak at 2018 Wukong (201811, Severe Tropical Storm, 980hPa) and 2000 Wukong (200016, Severe Typhoon) .
