Typhoon Hato Route Analysis

Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Hato (201713)'s life history began at 20 August 2017 at 02:00 of the Northwest Pacific Ocean, initial position was (18.7°N, 129.6°E). In the early stages after formed, the system as a whole presented a stable W-line Trend. From the coordinate sequence analysis, its latitudeined a longer Time's precise oscillation between 20.3°N to 20.5°N, after which the latitude began to slowly rise N. This 'W-line, after the NW-line' path shape, showed that a significant adjustment of the guiding air flow occurred in the later stages. As the system toward WS-N deep sea, the magnitude rapidly shrunk from 129.6°E to 113.5°E, the Moving speed accelerated when approaching land,

Evolution of intensity and peak state

Hato’s Intensity evolution shows a typical “fast enhancement – peak maintenance – landfall gradual reduction” characteristic. The initial phase was only Nameless (15m/s, 1002hPa) but the rapid organization intensified after Go to S. On August 22:15, Max Wind near the center increased to 33m/s, upgrading to Typhoon level. The most notable enhancement occurred within 24h prior to Landfall: From August 23 05:00 40m/s (955hPa) increased to August 23 12:00 48m/s (940hPa) , reaching Severe Typhoon level. This data shows that Hato experienced a dramatic explosion when approaching the Pearl River, with minimum pressure dropping to 940hPa, for its peak in life history. However, wefall was affected by friction and geography,

Comparison of historical names

For the 13th Typhoon in 2017, It peaked at Severe Typhoon level (48m/s, 940hPa) , which is at a stronger level of heat cyclone. Compared to at other systems with the same name but weaker Intensity or only reach Tropical Storm level in history, 2017 Hato with its extremely low Pressure and extremely high Max Wind, showed stronger energy release characteristics in the same name sequence.
