Typhoon Chan_hom routes
Track and Turning Characteristics
Typhoon Chan_hom (201509) 的生命史长达13天, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW行—N折”形态. formed初期 (6月30日至7月2日) , 系统位 at 低纬度海域 (9°N-11.3°N) , 主要 toward NW, 经度从161.1°E快速W移至154.3°E. 值得注意的是, 7月3日至7月4日期间, Typhoon 出现短暂的W折后停滞甚至微弱E退迹象 (经度由148.8°E微调至148.5°E) , 伴随Intensity波动, 随后重新确立NW行进路线.
Go to 中期阶段 (7月5日至7月10日) , 随着纬度升高至25.1°N, 路径曲率逐渐增大, Moving direction由NW转为更N的分量. 7月11日LandfallZhejiangZhoushan朱家尖镇前, Typhoon 中心位 at 27.8°N, 123.3°E, 此时仍保持Severe Typhoon级别. Landfall后, 系统并未立即消散, 而是继续N上, at 7月12日二次Landfall朝鲜黄Hainan道coastal , 最终在7月13日到达38.2°N的高纬度地区转化为Tropical Storm. 整个路径跨度极大, 覆盖了从热带洋面到温带海域的广阔区域.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Chan-Hom’s intensity followed a pattern of strengthening, fluctuation, explosive intensification, and weakening. It began as a tropical depression and rapidly intensified into a typhoon. A marked weakening occurred on July 4, with wind speed falling to 23 m/s and pressure rising to 992 hPa, but it then reorganized under favorable conditions and continued strengthening. The main explosive-intensification phase lasted from July 9 to July 10, when pressure dropped sharply from 960 hPa to 940 hPa within 24 hours and maximum winds increased to 52 m/s, reaching super typhoon intensity. It maintained its peak intensity until the early hours of July 11, with a minimum pressure of 935 hPa and maximum winds of 55 m/s. After landfall, it weakened rapidly due to terrain friction and cold, high-latitude waters, with pressure rising to 985 hPa.
Compared with previous typhoons of the same name, Chan-Hom in 2015 had significantly greater intensity. Its peak pressure of 935 hPa was far lower than the 965–970 hPa range recorded by the 2003, 2009, and 2020 storms of the same name, and it was substantially stronger than Chan-Hom in 2026, which reached only tropical storm intensity with a pressure of 990 hPa. This makes the 2015 storm the most energetic and potentially most destructive cyclone of the same name in recent years. Its exceptionally long lifespan and two landfalls also made its track more complex than the historical average.
