CMA Best Track final data
| Max Wind | The minimum air pressure. |
| CMA track data | 18 m/s | 998 hPa |
| Final best-track value | 17 m/s | 998 hPa |
During a Typhoon's active period, live published values are operational positioning data. After the Typhoon ends, the CMA combines more complete observational data to produce the best-track dataset, which is generally used for academic research and historical rankings. Data sources: CMA Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (compiled using IBTrACS v04r01); wind speeds are converted from knots to m/s and rounded.
Analysis of Typhoon Son-Tinh's track characteristics
Track and Movement Characteristics
2024年第6号Typhoon “Son-tinh”的生命史短暂且路径清晰, 整体呈现稳定的NNW至NETrend. 根据观测数据, 该Typhoon at 2024年8月11日20时在(28.8°N, 155°E) formed, 初始即为Tropical StormIntensity. 在随后的约36h内, 其Center持续 toward 高纬度海域推进, 最终 at 8月13日08时到达(35.2°N, 147.9°E).
In terms of latitude and longitude changes, Son-Tinh's track exhibited significant linearity, with no obvious stagnation or looping. In the initial stage (from 20:00 on the 11th to 08:00 on the 12th), the typhoon moved mainly northwest, with latitude rapidly increasing from 28.8°N to 31.3°N and longitude shifting from 155°E to 153.1°E. Subsequently (from 08:00 on the 12th to 08:00 on the 13th), the moving direction gradually turned north and then northeast, with longitude continuing eastward retreat to 147.9°E and latitude rising significantly to 35.2°N. Throughout the process, the typhoon remained in open ocean waters, with no landfall records and no direct wind or rain impact on land.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
在Intensity方面, 2024年“Son-tinh”表现出罕见的稳定性. 在整个监测期间 (total 13 track points) , 其中心The minimum air pressure.始终维持在998hPa, max wind 保持在18m/s, 等级始终为Tropical Storm. 数据显示, 该Typhoon 既无加强过程, 也无减弱迹象, 呈现出一种“恒定Intensity”的Moving状态, 这在Tropical Cyclone 中较为少见, 可能与其所处的大气环境垂直风切变较小或海温条件均衡有关.
与历届同名Typhoon 相比, 2024年“Son-tinh”的Intensity明显偏弱. 回顾历史数据, 2012年第23号Typhoon “Son-tinh”曾达到Severe Typhoon级别, minimum pressure 低至950hPa; 2018年第9号Typhoon “Son-tinh”虽同为Tropical Storm巅峰, 但其The minimum air pressure.也达到了983hPa, 优 at 2024年的998hPa. 由此可见, 2024年“Son-tinh”是近年来同名Typhoon 中Intensity最弱, 结构最为松散的一个, 其生命史短促且能量释放有限, 仅作为一次Common的远洋Tropical Disturbance过程被记录.
