Typhoon Kajiki’s finalized values differ from the live published values. The live values provide operational positioning data while the typhoon is active. After the typhoon ends, the CMA combines more complete observational data to produce final best-track data. Academic research and historical rankings generally use the finalized values. Data sources: CMA Tropical Cyclone best-track dataset (compiled through IBTrACS v04r01); wind speeds converted from knots to m/s and rounded.
Typhoon Kajiki trajectory analysis
Path and Moving Characteristics
Typhoon Kajiki, the 13th typhoon of 2025, formed in the sea east of the Philippines at 08:00 on August 22. Its overall track showed a steady WNW movement. Analysis of the sequence of longitude and latitude coordinates shows that the typhoon moved relatively slowly during the early stage of its life from August 22 to the early hours of August 23, with longitude shifting from 122.5°E to 118.4°E and latitude rising slightly from 16.3°N to 17.0°N. After entering the central South China Sea, its westward movement intensified significantly under the steering flow, with longitude changing by about 7 degrees in 24 hours, from 115.4°E to 108.6°E. Latitude remained between 17°N and 18°N with minor fluctuations, and there was no significant turning or looping. At 19:10 on August 25, Kajiki made landfall along the coast of northern Ha Tinh Province, Vietnam. It continued moving NW into the interior after landfall until dissipating over Laos at 14:00 on August 26. Its overall track was smooth, with no unusual oscillations, and was typical of a westward-moving typhoon in the South China Sea.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
“Kajiki”的Intensity演变经历了快速增强, 巅峰维持及Landfall减弱三个阶段. formed初期为Tropical Depression, 8月23日中午 intensified into Tropical Storm, 随后在24h内连跳两级, at 8月24日06时发展为Typhoon . 8月24日18时至25日06时, Typhoon 达到巅峰状态, 中心The minimum air pressure.降至950hPa, max wind 达45m/s, 维持Severe Typhoon等级长达12h. Landfall前6h开始减弱, Landfall时Intensity已降为Typhoon 级 (38m/s, 965hPa) , Landfall后迅速衰减为Tropical Storm及Tropical Depression.
Compared with previous typhoons of the same name, the intensity of Kajiki in 2025 was significantly higher than similar systems in recent years. The peak intensities of Kajiki in 2019 and 2014 were only tropical storm and severe tropical storm, with minimum pressures of 995 hPa and 983 hPa respectively; in 2001, it was merely a tropical depression. The peak intensity of Kajiki in 2025 (950 hPa, 45 m/s) matched that of Kajiki in 2007, making them jointly the strongest Kajiki typhoons on record, demonstrating the system's strong ability to acquire energy over the warm waters of the South China Sea.
