Typhoon Matmo trajectory analysis
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Matmo (201410)'s life history begins at Northwest Pacific ocean surface, the overall path presents a typical 'NW line—Landfall—toward NE' complex form. Starting from the formed early Tropical Storm phase (10.2°N, 135.2°E), the system stabilizes toward NW, crossing the Philippines to E ocean.
穿过Taiwan岛后, Typhoon Go to Taiwan海峡, 受地形摩擦及环境场影响, 路径略微调整, at 同日15:30在Fujian福清 City进行第二次Landfall. 值得注意的是, 该Typhoon 并未像多数Landfall华S的Typhoon 那样迅速消散或W折深入内陆, 而是在穿越FujianGo to 江W, 安徽等地后, at 华E地区出现明显的路径转折. 7月25日, 系统重新增强并转 toward NE, 最终 at 17:10在Shandong荣成进行第三次Landfall, 随后移入黄海N部. 这种跨越多个纬度带, 经历三次Landfall且路径发生显著转 toward 的特征, 显示了其受副热带高压边缘引导气流变化的深刻影响.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
In terms of intensity changes, Matmo underwent a significant process of 'intensification–peak–weakening–maintenance.' Initially a tropical storm, it moved toward the northwest under favorable environmental conditions, with wind speeds gradually rising from 18 m/s. Between 19:00 on July 22 and 04:00 on July 23, the typhoon reached its peak intensity, with the central minimum pressure dropping to 955 hPa and maximum winds reaching 42 m/s, classified as a severe typhoon. After its first landfall in Taiwan, the intensity was briefly maintained, but after crossing land and making a second landfall in Fujian, it rapidly weakened into a severe tropical storm and then a tropical storm due to surface friction and moisture cutoff. However, as it moved northward into eastern China's inland areas, its structure was partially preserved, maintaining tropical storm intensity as it continued north until making landfall in Shandong.
Its peak intensity (Severe Typhoon, 955hPa) is equal to that of Matmo in 2025, but far strong at 2019 at Matmo (Severe Tropical Storm, 992hPa) and 2008 at Matmo (Tropical Storm, 990hPa) . This shows that 2014 at Matmo is in the same name sequence at stronger energy, broader scope of influence, its ability to long journey to the Songdong Peninsula with Tropical StormIntensity, also reflects the robustness of its circular structure.
