Typhoon Shanshan’s final best-track value differs from its live published value. The live value represents operational positioning data during the typhoon’s active period. After the typhoon ends, the CMA compiles a best-track dataset using more complete observations. Academic research and historical rankings generally use the final best-track values. Data sources: CMA Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset, compiled from IBTrACS v04r01; wind speed converted from knots to m/s and rounded.
Characteristics of Typhoon Shanshan
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Shanshan (202410) began its lifecycle at 02:00 on August 22, 2024, initially near 16.9°N, 142.1°E. During its early formation, the system moved slowly toward the WNW. By 23:00 on August 23, its center had shifted west by only about 0.9° of longitude, while its latitude increased to 18.4°N. It then turned significantly toward the NW and accelerated under the guidance of the atmospheric circulation. From August 24 to August 27, its latitude rose rapidly from 21.6°N to 28.6°N, while its longitude moved substantially westward from 141.3°E to 130.3°E, indicating strong northwestward motion.
As it approached the waters off Kyushu, Japan, the track shifted again. After 17:00 on August 27, the typhoon’s center stabilized near 28.6°N and then turned nearly due north. It made landfall in Kagoshima, Kyushu, Japan, at 07:00 on August 29. After landfall, the system continued toward the NNE over land and sea before weakening into a tropical depression at 20:00 on August 30, centered at 34.2°N, 133.4°E. Its overall track followed a typical parabolic pattern, moving west, turning northwest, and then heading north, spanning nearly 17° of latitude over a long distance.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Shanshan的Intensity演变经历了快速增强, 巅峰维持及迅速衰减三个阶段. 初始阶段为Tropical Storm, 经过约5天的持续加强, at 8月27日17:00达到巅峰状态, 升级为Super Typhoon, 中心The minimum air pressure.降至935hPa, max wind 达52m/s. 值得注意的是, 在巅峰状态下, 该Typhoon 维持了至少15h的高Intensity (至8月28日08:00数据仍为52m/s/935hPa) , 显示出极强的结构稳定性.
On August 28, 23:00 weakened into Severe Typhoon, by the eve of Landfall, August 29, 14:00 was reduced to Severe Tropical Storm, wind speed stepped down to 30m/s, and air pressure rose back to 980hPa, indicating that the Landfall process caused significant damage to its structure.
与历史同名Typhoon 相比, 2024年Shanshan的Intensity显著高 at 近年同类系统. 2018年Shanshan巅峰仅为Severe Typhoon (The minimum air pressure.955hPa) , 2013年Shanshan更是仅达到Tropical Storm级别 (最低气压1004hPa) . 2024年Shanshan以935hPa的极低气压和52m/s的极高wind speed, 成为近期同名Typhoon 中Intensity最强的一次, 其peak intensity甚至超越了2018年系统20hPa的气压差值, 体现了该年度Typhoon 系统的极端性特征.
