Analysis of Typhoon Route
Track and Turning Characteristics
2013年第24号Typhoon “Danas”的生命史持续约7.5天, 整体路径呈现显著的NW toward Moving后转为NE toward 的抛物线形态. formed初期 (10月2日至4日) , 系统位 at lat 16°-17.5°N, 146°-152°海域, 主要维持 toward WNW direction缓慢Moving, 纬度变化较小, 经度W移明显. 10月4日14时升级为Tropical Storm后, Moving速度加快, direction逐渐由WNW转为NW direction.
The key transition occurred from October 7 to 8. At 14:00 on October 7, it reached peak intensity as a severe typhoon, with maximum winds of 50 m/s, while centered at 26.6°N, 128.8°. It then turned sharply right under the influence of the mid- and high-latitude westerlies. From 02:00 to 14:00 on October 8, the center moved from 29.7°N to 32.6°N, while its longitude increased slightly from 127.1°E to 127.6°E, marking the official shift in movement from northwest to northeast. The system then accelerated toward the northeast and weakened into a tropical depression over the eastern waters of the northern sea by 14:00 on October 9, ending observations. No landfall was recorded during its lifetime, as it remained mainly over the open ocean.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Danas underwent a complete life cycle, characterized by gradual intensification, rapid explosive development, and rapid weakening. It began as a tropical depression and remained at that stage for about two days before becoming a tropical storm on October 4. From October 5 to 7, it intensified rapidly, with maximum winds increasing from 20 m/s to 50 m/s and the minimum central pressure dropping sharply from 996 hPa to 940 hPa. In less than three days, it developed from a tropical storm into a severe typhoon. Its intensity peaked at 14:00 on October 7, after which it entered a weakening phase. During its subsequent northward journey, increasing sea-surface cooling and vertical wind shear caused its intensity to decline rapidly, with wind speeds falling from 50 m/s to 13 m/s within 48 hours.
Compared with previous typhoons of the same name, the 2013 Danas had relatively high intensity. Its peak intensity was as a severe typhoon, with a central pressure of 940 hPa and maximum winds of 50 m/s, stronger than the 2019 tropical storm, with 988 hPa, and the 2007 severe tropical storm, with 985 hPa. Compared with the severe typhoons of the same name in 2001 and 2025, the 2013 version had a lower minimum central pressure, at 940 hPa versus 950 hPa, and stronger maximum winds, at 50 m/s versus an unstated value that suggests slightly weaker or comparable intensity. This indicates that it had strong explosive development among that year's autumn typhoons.
