Typhoon Kong_rey Track Characteristics

Track Track and Moving Features

2013年第15号Typhoon “Kong_rey”的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现典型的NW toward Moving后转 toward NE的抛物线形态. formed初期 (8月25日) , 系统位 at 13.5°N, 128.9°E附近, 随后稳定 toward NW direction推进. 在8月26日至27日期间, Typhoon 中心The latitude从16.9°N快速N抬至19.5°N, During由124.7°EW移至123.9°E, 显示其受副热带高压引导气流影响显著, Moving速度较快且 direction稳定.

When the Typhoon center arrived at 22.4°N, near 122.7°E, its length changes tended at stagnate, and even during subsequent momentsined within the narrow range of 122.3°E to 122.6°E, indicating that at this time Typhoon was at the turn toward transition period, Moving speed slowed.After 9:00 on August 29, with the rapid latitude N rising to 25.3°N and above, the path markedly turned to NE direction.By August 30 at 19:00 before the dispersal, Center had reached 30.8°N, 125.7°E, completed the high latitude crossing from low latitude toward.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

In terms of intensity, “Kong_rey” underwent slow enhancement to peak after gradually weakening. Initial phase was Nameless (16m/s, 1004hPa) , then gradually strengthened in the course of the NW line. August 28 05:00, the system reached Severe Tropical Storm intensity with max winds of 25m/s, minimum pressure dropped to 988hPa. Since then until August 29 09:00, Typhoonined Severe Tropical Storm Intensity, and on August 29 09:00 reached the lowest atmospheric pressure in life history 985hPa, max windined 25m/s. It is worth noting that during peak intensity maintenance, its core structure was relatively stable, but did not further develop to Typhoon level.

From 16:00 on August 29, as the path turns toward NE and Go to higher latitudes, the system begins to weaken, wind speed falling to 23m/s, air pressure rising back to 990hPa.

Its peak intensity is only Severe Tropical Storm, minimum pressure is 985hPa. In comparison, 2024 and 2018 'Kong_rey' reached Super Typhoon level, minimum pressure is lower to 920hPa; even the same name Typhoon in 2007 and 2001, also reached Typehoon and Severe Typhoon level, minimum pressure is 955hPa and 958hPa respectively.
