Typhoon Prapiroon, international code 201807, international name PRAPIROON, 2018 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 2018-06-28 20:00:00, ended: 2018-07-04 14:00:00. Peak intensity: Typhoon , minimum central pressure: 970 hPa, max wind: 33m/s.
Typhoon Prapiroon at 2018-06-28 20:00:00 at 19.6°N, 131.3°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Nameless.
It peaked at Typhoon intensity with max winds of 33 m/s (~119 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 970hPa, recorded at 2018-07-02 11:00:00.
Typhoon Prapiroon gradually weakened and was numbered off on 2018-07-04 14:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 46 track points.
From the initial formed Position (19.6°N, 131.3°E) to the dispersed Position (39.6°N, 134.9°E) , the system mainly walks along the sub-tropical high-pressure W side toward toward high-latitude waters. In the early Moving period (June 28 to June 30) , the Typhoon center latitude changes slowly, length slowly W move, manifested as near stagnant or weak NW trend; followed from July 1, as the latitude N rapidly rises, the Moving speed accelerates sharply, the path gradually turns toward NE. Especially after July 2, the system toGo accelerated N upper phase, the latitude is significantly increased across the plane, toward toward toward, toward toward toward, the entire
The Typhoon underwent a full 'formed-enhanced-top-weakened' life cycle. The initial phase was Nameless (15m/s, 1004hPa) and then steadily enhanced. On June 29th upgraded to Tropical Storm, on July 1st further intensified into Severe Tropical Storm. Intensity peak appeared on July 2nd at 23:00, at which time the central minimum air pressure dropped to 970hPa, the max wind reached 33m/s, and reached the Typhoon level. It is worth noting that after reaching the peak, the systemined high IntensityTime shorter, since July 3rd at 08:00, weakening, returning to the Severe Tropical Storm level, and continuing toward NMoving to gradually decline. By July 4th at
Compared to the previous typhoon, the 2018 “Prapiroon” Intensity is at a medium level. Compared to the 2012 21st Typhoon “Prapiroon” (Severe Typhoon, minimum pressure 940hPa), the 2018 version of the Intensity is significantly weaker, the air pressure is higher than 30hPa, wind speed is lower than about 10-15m/s. However, its Intensity is slightly higher at the 2024 4th Typhoon “Prapiroon” (Severe Tropical Storm, minimum pressure 982hPa), the latter has not reached the Typhoon level.
