Typhoon Toraji trajectory analysis

Moving and turning toward characteristics

Observation data showed that the Typhoon's initial position at lat 25.3°N, near 123.4°, overall Moving path showed a noticeable NE toward Trend. During September 1 to September 2, Typhoon center mainly toward NE direction slow Moving, latitude rising from 25.3°N to 27.8°N, length from 123.4°E to 126.6°E, Moving speed being relatively smooth.

It is worth noting that after Go to September 3, Typhoon Moving accelerated significantly, and the path curvature changed. From September 3 at 05:00 to 14:00, the latitude rapidly increased N close to 1 degree within a short 9h, and then between September 3 at 14:00 and September 4 at 08:00, Typhoon accelerated toward ENE, and finally at September 4 at 02:00 in Japan's Landfall.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

In terms of intensity changes, “Toraji” underwent the enhancement process from Nameless to Severe Tropical Storm, then gradually weakened. September 1 formed when Nameless (16m/s, 1002hPa) , then the air pressure continued to fall, wind speed increased. September 2 at noon reached the Tropical Storm level (23m/s, 990hPa) , and at this Intensityined a longer Time. September 3 at 14:00, Typhoon reached peak intensity, set to Severe Tropical Storm, the central minimum air pressure dropped to 980hPa, max wind to 28m/s. Landfall and pre-Landfall, with the latitude rise and sea temperature decreases, the intensity rapidly weakened, to September 4 at 8:00 has fallen to Tropical Storm (23m/s, 995

Its peak air pressure (980hPa) high at 2001 Super Typhoon 'Toraji' (944hPa) and 2024 Typhoon 'Toraji' (965hPa) , but low at 2007 Tropical Storm 'Toraji' (988hPa) and 2018 Tropical Storm 'Toraji' (1002hPa) .
