Typhoon Damrey Route Analysis
Track Movement and Recurvature Characteristics
The life cycle of Typhoon Damrey (201723) began over the western Pacific Ocean east of the Philippines, with an overall stable westward track. From its initial coordinates, the system moved continuously westward from (11°N, 125.2°E) at 17:00 on October 31, crossing the waters south of Vietnam and Hainan. During this movement, latitude changes were minimal, basically staying within a narrow band between 11°N and 13°N, indicating significant control by the steering flow on the southern side of the subtropical high, resulting in a straight path with few deviations. Until its landfall on the northern coast of Khanh Hoa Province, Vietnam, at 06:10 on November 4, its longitude shifted rapidly westward from 125.2°E to near 109.2°E, traversing the entire South China Sea. After landfall, the system continued westward deep into the interior of the Indochina Peninsula, finally weakening into a tropical depression and being discontinued at 20:00 on November 4. Throughout the process, there was no obvious northward turn or stagnation, indicating high movement efficiency.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Damrey的Intensity演变经历了“长期维持—快速增强—巅峰维持—迅速衰减”的典型过程. 在 formed后的近48h内 (10月31日至11月2日上午) , 系统长期维持Tropical DepressionIntensity (15m/s, 1005hPa) , 发展缓慢. 自11月2日10:00升级为Tropical Storm后, Go to 快速增强期, Pressure在约36h内从998hPa骤降至955hPa, max wind 由18m/s激增至42m/s, at 11月4日02:00达到Severe Typhoon级别巅峰. 值得注意的是, 在Landfall前约5h内, 其Intensity保持在42m/s/955hPa的峰值状态, 显示出极强的近岸爆发力. Landfall后, 受地形摩擦及水汽切断影响, 系统在14h内迅速 weakened into Tropical Depression.
Compared to History, Damrey's peak intensity (Severe Typhoon, 955hPa) in 2017 was between Damrey (Super Typhoon, 930hPa) in 2005 and Damrey (Severe Tropical Storm, 980hPa) in 2023.
