Typhoon Kujira trajectory analysis

Path Moving and Structural Characteristics

According to the four key track points data of the 14th Typhoon “Kujira” in the observation period of 2026 showed a slow and stable MovingTrend. According to the four key track points data of August 4th 17:00 to August 5th 02:00, the Typhoon Center from lat 17.8 degrees, lng 119.1 degrees Moving to lat 17.1 degrees, lng 119.8 degrees. The overall Moving direction is WSW toward, then gradually shifted to W direction. Specifically, the first three hours (17:00 to 23:00) the latitude from 17.8°N to 17.4°N, the length from 119.1°E to 119.5°E, showed it has a clear toward scale; while at the last time (23:00 to 02:00), the latitude continued to S17.1°N, but after the

Intensity Analysis

In terms of Intensity changes, “Kujira” experienced an enhancement process from Tropical Depression to Tropical Storm. During three observations on August 4 at 17:00 to 23:00, the systemined the level of Tropical Depression, max wind stable at 15m/s, and the central minimum air pressureined at 1002hPa, showing a stagnant or slow accumulation of the development of the initial Intensity. However, by August 5 at 02:00, the system Intensity saw a significant leap, max wind increased to 18m/s, the central minimum air pressure dropped to 998hPa, and officially upgraded to Tropical Storm. This process showed that after a stable period of approximately 9h, Typhoon’s internal flow organization may have been optimized, resulting in air pressure decreases and speedwind

Comparison of Typhoon
