Characteristics of Typhoon Higos
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Higos (202608) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific洋面, 整体路径呈现显著的“先W后N再NE”的抛物线型转 toward 特征. formed初期 (6月23日至24日) , 系统维持在15.4°N至15.7°N的低纬度海域, 主要受副热带高压S侧E气流引导, 以稳定的W行路径为主, 经度从145.9°E快速W移至139.5°E, 横 toward 跨度较大.
As the latitude gradually increased to 17.2°N above, the Moving direction turned from W to NW toward, and accelerated toward high latitude advancement. especially during June 26 08:00 to 14:00, the Typhoon completed a key turn toward near 23.4°N, followed by a sharp turn toward NE direction. finally at June 27 05:00 dispersed at 33.9°N, 138.9°E to JapanE.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
在Intensity方面, Higos表现为典型的“缓慢增强, 巅峰维持”特征. 初始阶段Pressure稳定在998hPa, max wind 18m/s. 经过约40h的W行过程后, at 6月25日02:00开始轻微加强, 气压降至995hPa, wind speed增至20m/s. 真正的Intensity峰值出现在生命史后半段, 6月26日08:00达到巅峰状态, minimum pressure 为990hPa, max wind 23m/s, 等级定为Tropical Storm. 值得注意的是, 在达到巅峰后直至消散, 其Intensity未出现明显衰减, 气压与wind speed保持在990hPa和23m/s的稳定水平.
Historically, Higos reached Super Typhoon and Severe Typhoon levels respectively in 2002 and 2015, with minimum pressure lower to 904hPa and 945hPa; 2020 Higos also reached Typhoon level (970hPa) .In comparison, Higos only reached Tropical Storm level in 2026 and its Intensity characteristics are closer to 2008 Higos (top Tropical Storm, 998hPa), but the minimum air pressure is slightly lower than 2hPa, max wind slightly higher than 5m/s, at the medium weak Tropical Cyclone process.
