The SummaryTyphoon Shanshan (international code 201813) is a 2018 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity Severe Typhoon, max wind 42m/s, minimum central pressure 955hPa, not in China Landfall, 2018-08-10 was numbered off, recording 43 track points.
Typhoon Shanshan, international code 201813, international name SHANSHAN, 2018 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Formed: 2018-08-03 08:00:00, ended: 2018-08-10 08:00:00. Peak intensity: Severe Typhoon, minimum central pressure: 955 hPa, max wind: 42m/s.
Typhoon Shanshan at 2018-08-03 08:00:00 at 18°N, 150.8°E over the Northwest Pacific; initial intensity: Tropical Storm.
It peaked at Severe Typhoon intensity with max winds of 42 m/s (~151 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 955hPa, recorded at 2018-08-07 14:00:00.
2018-08-10 08:00:00 After, Typhoon Shanshan gradually weakened and was numbered off on 2018-08-10 08:00:00 was numbered off; its lifecycle recorded 43 track points.
2018年第13号Typhoon “Shanshan”的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现典型的NW toward Moving后转为NE toward 的抛物线轨迹. formed初期 (8月3日) , 系统位 at 18°N, 150.8°E附近, 随后稳定 toward NW direction推进. 在8月3日至8月7日期间, Typhoon 中心The latitude从18°N迅速N抬至32°N, During由150.8°EW移至143.2°E, 显示出较强的NW行进分量.
The key turning point of the path appeared at about 20 a.m. on August 7th. at 32°N, 143.2°E, reaching the most W-side Position. Subsequently, influenced by the mid-high-latitude W-band guided airflow, Moving direction changed significantly, from NW toward NE. From August 8th to August 10th, Typhoon accelerated toward NE, the latitude jumped rapidly from 33.3°N to 40°N, the length revolved from 141.9°E toward E to 147°E. Thro the process, Typhoon did not landfall any land, was always active at sea, eventually weakened in the high-latitude sea.
In terms of intensity changes, “Shanshan” underwent a complete formed, enhanced, peak maintenance and weakening process. Initial phase was Tropical Storm (18m/s) , then rapidly intensified into Typhoon within 48h . August 5 to August 7, Typhoon Go to Intensity platform, max windined at 38-40m/s, minimum pressureined between 960-965hPa. August 7 at 20, the system reached peak intensity, set to Severe Typhoon level, the central minimum air pressure dropped to 955hPa, max wind to 42m/s. Peak stateined time shorter, then due to NGo to high latitude cold water and wind switching effects, intensity began to decline, until August 10 weakened into Tropical Storm (20m/s).
与历史同名Typhoon 相比, 2018年“Shanshan”的Intensity处 at 中等水平. 相较 at 2000年和2024年的同名Typhoon (后者巅峰为Super Typhoon, minimum pressure 935hPa) , 2018年版本的peak intensity明显偏弱, 气压高出20hPa, wind speed差距显著. 然而, 其Intensity远胜 at 2013年的同名Typhoon (仅达Tropical Storm级别, minimum pressure 1004hPa) . 这表明“Shanshan”这一命名下的Typhoon Intensity离散度较大, 2018年个案属 at 具备完整Typhoon 结构但未达到超强级别的典型系统.
