Typhoon Ma-on Route Characteristics
Track and Movement Characteristics
The life cycle of Typhoon Ma-on (202209) began at 14:00 on August 21, 2022, initially as a tropical depression at 17.2°N, 127.3°E. Its sampled track shows a generally stable northwestward movement, with no major turns or unusual fluctuations. During its early formation phase from August 21 to 22, the system moved slowly toward the west-northwest, dipped slightly south in latitude, and then rose rapidly. After entering the South China Sea, it accelerated under the steering flow, followed a highly linear track, and headed directly toward the Guangdong coast.
The key landfall nodes occurred at 10:30 on August 25, Typhoon Center at Guangdong Electric White Coastal Landfall. The last observations before the landfall showed that the systemined WNW direction advancing, along the latitude changes evenly, indicating its location at a more stable environmental flowing field. After the landfall, the system continued toward NW direction deep inland, until 05:00 on August 26, weakened into Tropical Depression and was numbered off, the entire pathway process clearly consistent, with typical summer S Sea Typhoon Landfall features.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
In terms of intensity changes, “Ma-on” underwent a complete enhancement process from Tropical Depression to Typhoon, and reached its peak in the aftermath of Landfall. On the morning of August 23 to Tropical Storm, then steadily strengthened. On the evening of August 24 to the morning of 25 is its main enhancement period, max wind rising rapidly from 30m/s to 35m/s, minimum pressure dropping to 970hPa, reaching “Typhoon” peak intensity. It is worth noting that the system stillins 35m/swind speed and 970hPa air pressure at the time of Landfall (August 25:10), showing stronger shore explosion or structural integrity. After landfall, the intensity rapidly decreases, 6hwind speed drops to 23m/s,
Its peak intensity (970hPa, 35m/s) was significantly strong at 2016's 'Ma-on' (Tropical Storm level, 996hPa), but weak at 2011's (Super Typhoon, 930hPa) and 2004's (Severe Typhoon, 945hPa) same name Typhoon.
