1974 Typhoon Past typhoons named Gloria Typhoon archive

[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon Gloria (No.197426, the historical numbering system used before 1981) was a 1974 Northwest Pacific typhoon. It reached super typhoon intensity, with maximum winds of 65m/s and a minimum central pressure of 937hPa, did not make landfall in China, was numbered off on 1974-11-10, and had 31 recorded track points.

Numbering note: The international numbering system for the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by the JMA in Japan, the regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1974. The number 197426 is the historical identifier used by the CMA. The numbers assigned that year by the JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China’s meteorological agencies may differ and cannot be compared directly.

Typhoon Gloria Route Analysis

Path and Moving Characteristics

Typhoon Gloria (197426) at 1974年11月3日08时在Northwest Pacific洋面 formed, 初始Position为7.3°N, 141.5°E. 其生命史持续约7天半, 整体路径呈现典型的NW toward MovingTrend, 未发生明显的转 toward 或Landfall行为. 从经纬度坐标序列分析, 该Typhoon 在 formed初期保持稳定的WNW, 纬度从7.3°N迅速N抬至11月5日的16°N附近, 经度则由141.5°EW进至128.8°E. 在11月5日20时达到最N端纬度16°N后, 路径略 toward N折, 随后维持 toward WNW direction推进, 直至11月9日到达22.4°N, 116.7°E附近. 此后, 系统Moving速度减缓, 并在S海NE部海域逐渐减弱消散, 最终 at 11月10日20时在20.8°N, 115.4°E处结束观测. 全过程中, Typhoon 中心始终位 at 海上, 无Landfall记录.

Intensity evolution and historical comparison

Gloria的Intensity演变经历了快速增强, 巅峰维持及缓慢减弱三个阶段. formed初期, 系统在24h内由Tropical Storm (20m/s) 迅速 intensified into Typhoon (35m/s) . 11月4日至5日期间, 随着气压从970hPa降至945hPa, wind speed增至55m/s, 确立Severe Typhoon等级. 11月5日20时, 系统达到巅峰状态, 录得最低气压937hPa及Max Wind65m/s, 评级为Super Typhoon. 此后, 受环境因素影响, intensity 开始波动下降, 气压回升至954hPa以上, wind speed回落至50m/s以下. Go to 11月7日后, 系统进一步 weakened into Typhoon 及Severe Tropical Storm, 气压稳步上升至1007hPa, wind speed降至10m/s.

Compared with previous typhoons bearing the same name, the 1974 Gloria was significantly more intense. Its peak central pressure of 937hPa was far lower than that of Gloria in 1999 (985hPa), 1996 (965hPa), 1978 (990hPa), and 1968 (951hPa). Its maximum wind speed of 65m/s also exceeded that of tropical cyclones named Gloria in other years, demonstrating the exceptional explosive potential and destructive power of the 1974 typhoon, the strongest in the series.
