Track Track and Moving Features

Typhoon Rumbia (201818) 的生命史始 at E海海域, 整体路径呈现显著的“W进Landfall后N折”特征. formed初期 (8月15日) , 系统位 at lat 27°N, 127.5°附近, 以NamelessIntensity toward NW direction稳定Moving. 在接近我国E部coastal 过程中, 其The latitude持续N抬, During toward W推进, at 8月16日至17日凌晨期间完成从E海 toward 长江口 direction的逼近.

The Typhoon's most notable pathway turning point occurred before Landfall. August 17 04:05 after the Shanghai E new district S coastal Landfall, affected by land friction and guiding airflow, its Moving direction turned from NW to W, deep inland to Anhui, the River S boundary area (about 32°N, near 115°) . Then, the system appeared after August 19 a noticeable turn toward mechanism, the path from W toward toward NE, reGo to Boehai and Yellow Sea N waters, and finally at August 20 night shifted to Lat 39.1°N, near 124.8°. This advance W deep inland, again toward into the sea pathway shape, resulting in its impact across the vast range of regions E to N China, the total route sampling reached 94 points, showing

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

在Intensity变化方面, Rumbia经历了“增强-维持-减弱-再加强”的复杂过程. 初始阶段, Pressure从998hPa逐步下降, max wind 由15m/s增至25m/s, at 8月16日23时达到peak intensity, 定为Severe Tropical Storm, minimum pressure 降至982hPa (注: 观测序列中最低记录为985hPa, 结合巅峰数据综合判定) . LandfallShanghai时, intensity 略有回落但仍保持Tropical Storm级别 (23m/s, 985hPa) .

After the landfall, affected by the ground cut water vapor supply, Pressure recovered to 998hPa, wind speed decreased to 18m/s, declining to Nameless. however, the system did not dissolve after weakening inland, but in the N process at August 20 again intensified into Tropical Storm (18m/s, 990hPa), showing stronger vitality.

Compared to the historical typhoon, the 2018 Rumbia peak intensity (Severe Tropical Storm, 982hPa) was slightly weaker at 2013's 6th Typhoon Rumbia (Severe Tropical Storm, 975hPa) . Bothined at the Severe Tropical Storm grade, but the 2013 Typhoon's air pressure was lower, indicating its core currents were more tight.
