Characteristics of Typhoon Halong
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Halong (201923) formed at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, 整体路径呈现典型的“NW行后转 toward NE”的抛物线形态. 从11月2日02:00在10.7°N, 160.8°E formed初期开始, 系统稳定 toward NW, 纬度由10.7°N逐步N抬至20.3°N, 经度则由160.8°EW进至150.5°E. 在此期间, Typhoon Center变化均匀, 未出现剧烈摆动.
The key turning point occurred between 02:00 on November 6 and 02:00 on November 7. When the typhoon’s center reached approximately 20.3°N, 150.5°E, its direction changed significantly from northwest to north, before gradually turning northeast. After November 8, its latitude rose rapidly to above 30°N, while its longitude began moving back toward the east. It finally weakened and dissipated at 32.6°N, 168.7°E at 08:00 on November 10. Throughout its lifetime, the typhoon remained over the open ocean and made no landfall.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Halong’s intensity evolution followed a complete formed–rapid intensification–peak–weakening cycle. It began as a tropical depression and strengthened rapidly. From November 4 to November 6, its central pressure dropped sharply from 985 hPa to 905 hPa, while maximum winds surged from 28 m/s to 68 m/s, establishing it as a super typhoon. It reached its peak intensity at 02:00 on November 6, with a minimum central pressure of 905 hPa and maximum winds of 68 m/s. Thereafter, as it moved toward higher latitudes, environmental factors caused its intensity to weaken continuously until it was a tropical depression before dissipating.
Compared with previous typhoons of the same name, the 2019 Typhoon Halong had an exceptionally intense peak. Its minimum central pressure of 905 hPa was lower than those of Halong in 2014 (915 hPa), 2025 (930 hPa), 2002 (950 hPa), and 2008 (980 hPa). Its maximum wind speed of 68 m/s also significantly exceeded the records from the same period in other years. This made the 2019 Halong one of the most intense typhoons of that name on record and demonstrated its remarkable capacity for explosive intensification. Although it made no direct landfall, its status as an oceanic super typhoon gives it important reference value within the historical record.
