Typhoon Cimaron trajectory
Track Movement and Recurvature Characteristics
Typhoon Cimaron (2013 No. 8) had a relatively short life cycle, lasting about 60 hours from formation to dissipation. Its overall track showed a steady trend toward the northwest, with no notable abnormal turns or stagnation. During the initial stage, from 14:00 to 23:00 on July 16, the system was located over the eastern waters of the Philippines near 15.7°N, 124.2°E, moving slowly toward the west-northwest as a tropical depression. After July 17, as it moved north of 18.5°N, its track gradually shifted more directly toward the northwest, crossing the Bashi Channel into the northeastern waters of the South China Sea.
It is noteworthy that during the approximation of Fujian coastal (July 18, 10:00-19:00), the length coordinates remained stable near 117.9°E, while the latitude rose from 22.0°N rapidly to 23.8°N. This data feature suggests that during the period prior to the Landfall, the Typhoon, influenced by the guided airflow, showed a near-N Moving trajectory, this short-term toward Moving accelerated its process of approaching the shore.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
在Intensity变化方面, “Cimaron”经历了典型的“增强-巅峰-减弱”过程. 7月17日08时, 系统 intensified into Tropical Storm (18m/s, 1000hPa) . 随后在穿越海峡过程中持续整合, at 7月18日04时达到生命史peak intensity, 此时中心最低气压降至990hPa, max wind 达23m/s. 然而, 巅峰状态维持Time极短, 仅数h后, 随着系统靠近land及垂直风切变等环境因素影响, 气压迅速回升至995hPa并保持稳定, wind speed回落至20m/s. Landfall后, 受地形摩擦作用, intensity 急剧衰减, 至7月19日02时已 weakened into Tropical Depression (16m/s, 1002hPa) .
Its peak air pressure (990hPa) high at 2001 'Cimaron' (984hPa) and 2018 'Cimaron' (945hPa, Severe Typhoon), but slightly lower at 2024 'Cimaron' (1002hPa) .
