Characteristics of Typhoon Kammuri
Path and Moving Characteristics
Typhoon Kammuri (201928) began its lifecycle over the Northwest Pacific and followed a generally steady westward track, without any obvious turns or landfall behavior. Its coordinates changed from 9°N, 153.1°E at formation to 8.5°N, 113.8°E before dissipating. Its latitude varied only slightly, remaining mainly over low-latitude waters between 8°N and 14.6°N. In longitude, it traveled westward across about 40 degrees, following a relatively straight track.
Notably, between November 29 and December 1, the typhoon’s center latitude fluctuated slightly, briefly moving south from 14.5°N to 13.2°N before edging northward again. This reflected minor adjustments within the steering flow on the southern side of the subtropical high, while its overall westward progression remained unchanged. With no landfall recorded throughout its lifecycle, the typhoon spent most of its life over open waters and had no direct impact on land.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Kammuri的Intensity演变经历了典型的“增强-巅峰-减弱”过程. formed初期为Tropical Depression, 随后迅速加强, at 11月28日升级为Severe Tropical Storm. 在经过短暂的Intensity平台期后, Typhoon at 12月1日Go to 快速增强阶段, Pressure从975hPa急剧下降至945hPa, max wind 跃升至48m/s, 并 at 12月2日至3日维持Severe Typhoon级别, 达到生命史巅峰 (最低气压940hPa, max wind 50m/s) .
After its peak, the typhoon rapidly weakened due to environmental factors. In the early hours of December 4, its intensity fell to typhoon level, and it was subsequently downgraded to tropical storm and tropical depression within 48 hours. It finally dissipated over the southern waters of Hainan on the evening of December 6.
Compared with previous typhoons of the same name, Kammuri in 2019 was significantly stronger. Historical data show that the previous Kammuri typhoons in 2014, 2008, and 2002 peaked only at severe tropical storm intensity, with minimum central pressures between 980hPa and 985hPa. The 2019 typhoon not only reached severe typhoon intensity, but also recorded a minimum central pressure of 940hPa and maximum wind of 50m/s, far exceeding the intensity records of earlier storms with the same name. It was the strongest storm in this naming series in recent years.
