Track Track and Moving Characteristics

Typhoon Lekima (201328) formed at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 初始Position位 at 10.6°N, 161°E. 从路径采样数据来看, 该Typhoon 整体呈现稳定的NW toward MovingTrend, 随后逐渐转 toward NE direction. 在生命史的前半段 (10月21日至24日) , Typhoon 中心The latitude从10.6°N迅速N抬至21.5°N, During由161°EW移至146.5°E, 显示出强劲的NW行进动力. 值得注意的是, 在10月25日14:00至10月26日02:00期间, Typhoon 纬度由26.9°N急剧跃升至31.7°N, 而经度变化较小 (144.4°E至146.7°E) , 表明此时Typhoon Moving速度加快且路径出现明显的 toward N转折. 此后, Typhoon 继续 toward NE direction加速Moving, 最终 at 10月26日20:00在39.4°N, 155.3°E weakened into Severe Tropical Storm. 整个生命周期内, 该Typhoon 未Landfall任何陆地, 始终在洋面上活动.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

Lekima的Intensity演变经历了快速增强, 巅峰维持及缓慢减弱三个阶段. 从10月21日02:00的Tropical Storm (18m/s, 998hPa) 起步, 仅用时约36h便 intensified into Super Typhoon (10月23日02:00达58m/s, 925hPa) . 其peak intensity出现在10月23日14:00及10月24日14:00°E, max wind 达到60m/s, minimum pressure 降至920hPa, 并在此高Intensity等级上维持了较长Time. 10月25日后, 随着The latitude升高, Typhoon Intensity开始波动下降, 至10月26日20:00消散前已 weakened into Severe Tropical Storm.

Compared to previously identified Typhoon, Lexima’s 2013 Intensity was significantly higher at 2007 (top Typhoon, 975hPa) and 2001 (top Severe Typhoon, 949hPa) systems of the same name. although its lowest air pressure (920hPa) was slightly higher at 2019 Lexima (915hPa), both reached the Super Typhoon level, showing the characteristics of Lexima, which is named to fertilize high Intensity Typhoon under specific weather conditions.
