Analysis of Typhoon Rai
Track Movement Features
The 15th Typhoon “Rai” in the observation period (September 13, 2016 02:00 to 11:00) showed a stable NW toward MovingTrend, then switched to W direction. The starting moment, the system center position at lat 15.3°N, 109.1°, then within 3h toward lat 15.9°N, 108.4°Moving, showed its obvious toward N factor. During 05:00 to 08:00, the latitude only increased from 15.9°N to 16.0°N, and the length moved from 108.4°EW to 107.9°E, indicating that at this time the directional toward segment in the NW flow weakened, the W toward segment dominated. By 11:00, the Center reached 16.0°N, 107.0°, the latitude remained unchanged, with no continued
