Typhoon TIII trajectory analysis
Track Movement Features
Typhoon TOKAGE, the 11th typhoon of 2016, had a relatively short life cycle, with observations covering 08:00 on 2016-08-20 to 14:00 on 2016-08-21. Its track generally headed northwest before turning north-northeast. During the initial stage, from 08:00 to 20:00 on 2016-08-20, its center moved rapidly north from 32.6°N to 36.3°N and from 147.6°E to 143.4°E, indicating that steady movement toward the northwest under the steering flow.
During the 20th to 21st, the Typhoon center continued toward N to 37.8°N, the length further W shifted to 142.5°E, at this time to the most W end of the path. Then, the path appeared a noticeable turn. After 21st, the Typhoon center length began toward E reflow (from 142.5°E to 143.1°E, eventually stable near 143°E) , while the latitude continued to N to 40.6°N. This coordinate change characteristic shows that “Tiii” completed a significant turn toward process on the ocean side of Japan, from NW to NE, in line with the typical influence of the medium-latitude W wind belt system on Tropical Cyclone.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
In terms of Intensity, the 2016 “Tiii” showed extremely high stability. During the entire observation period, its central minimum air pressure was constant at 995hPa, max windined at 18m/s, the intensity level alwaysined at the Tropical Storm level.
In history, the 7th Typhoon “Tiii” has reached Severe Typhoon level, the minimum pressure is lower than 955hPa; in 2021 the 18th Typhoon “Tiii” has also reached Typhoon level, the minimum pressure is 968hPa. Even the 9th Typhoon “Tiii” of 2004, the same as the Tropical Storm level, its minimum air pressure is 990hPa, slightly lower at 2016 case.
