Typhoon Yutu Route Characteristics

Path and Moving Characteristics

Typhoon Yutu (201826) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的W行Trend, 后期略有N翘. 从 formed点 (8.8°N, 156.9°E) 至巅峰期 (14°N, 147.1°E) , 系统主要 toward NW direction快速Moving, During在约48h内W移近10个The latitude, 显示出较强的引导气流作用. 在10月24日至28日期间, Typhoon 维持WN路径, 穿越Philippines以E洋面, 纬度从14°N缓慢爬升至17.8°N, 经度持续W进至128.1°E. Go to S海NE部后, Moving速度明显放缓, 路径转 toward 更为N, 最终在11月3日 at Guangdongcoastal 附近海域 (115.8°E) 减弱消散. 全生命周期内无Landfall记录, 始终在海上活动.

Intensity Analysis

该Typhoon 经历了极为剧烈的爆发式增强过程. 从10月22日的Tropical Storm (18m/s, 1002hPa) 起步, 仅用时约36h便迅猛 intensified into Super Typhoon. 10月24日14时, 其Pressure降至900hPa°E, max wind 达70m/s, 随后更触及895hPa的最低气压纪录, 峰值wind speed高达72m/s, 确立其Super Typhoon地位. 在10月24日至28日的五天Time里, Yutu长Time维持Super Typhoon或Severe Typhoon级别, 核心结构稳固. 然而, 自10月29日起, 随着环境条件变化, intensity 开始阶梯式下滑, 从Severe Typhoon (48m/s) 迅速 weakened into Typhoon (35m/s) , 并 at 10月31日降级为Severe Tropical Storm. 最终在11月3日凌晨, Pressure回升至1010hPa, wind speed降至15m/s, 转化为Nameless并 was numbered off.

Comparison of historical names

与历届同名Typhoon 相比, 2018年Yutu的Intensity具有压倒性优势. 2013年第16号Typhoon “Yutu”巅峰仅为Tropical Storm, minimum pressure 1002hPa; 2007年第2号Typhoon “Yutu”和2001年第7号Typhoon “Yutu”peak intensity分别为Severe Typhoon, minimum pressure 分别为940hPa和958hPa. 相比之下, 2018年Yutu不仅达到了Super Typhoon级别, 其最低气压 (895hPa) 远低 at 历史同期同名Typhoon °E, max wind (72m/s) 也显著高 at 以往记录, 是近年来同名字Typhoon 中Intensity最强, 破坏潜力最大的一个系统.
