Typhoon Megi Trail Characteristics
Path and Moving Characteristics
Typhoon Megi (202202) 的生命史较短, 整体呈现“W进停滞, 折返消散”的独特轨迹. formed初期, 系统位 at Philippines以E洋面 (10.7°N, 127°E) , 受引导气流影响 toward W. 在4月10日08:00至11日08:00期间, Typhoon 中心纬度从10.7°N缓慢N抬至11.0°N, 经度由127°EW移至124.8°E, 显示出稳定的WNWMovingTrend.
It is worth noting that around 8:00 on April 11th became a key turning point in the path. Since then, the Typhoon Moving speed has significantly slowed, and almost stagnated within the narrow length range of 124.5°E to 124.7°E. After 17:00 on April 11th, the system began to turn toward E, finally at 17:00 on April 12th at 10.9°N, 125.3°E near weakened into Tropical Depression. Thro the process, the Typhoon has not landfall any land, always in marine activity, the path shape shows a marked 'U-type' or rotational characteristic, indicating that it is under complex constraints of the surrounding atmospheric circle, lack of continuous toward propulsion power.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
In terms of intensity, the Typhoon Megi (202202)ins a short time and a weak intensity.The system rapidly reaches its peak after forming, during April 10, 14:00 to 11:00, the central minimum air pressure is stable at 995hPa, max wind isined at 20m/s, qualified as Tropical Storm level.This peak intensity lasts only about 24h, then from April 11, 17:00, Pressure returns to 998hPa, wind speed drops to 18m/s, Go to weakening phase. by April 12, 14:00, the air pressure further rises to 1000hPa, wind speed drops to 16m/s, degradation to Tropical Depression, marking the end of its life cycle.
Looking back on previous records, 2016 Megi (201617) and 2010 Megi (201013) both developed into Super Typhoon, minimum pressure lower to 935hPa and 895hPa respectively, max wind far more than this process; even 2004 Megi (200416) , its peak intensity also reached Typehoon level (970hPa) .
