Analysis of Typhoon Kim
Path and Moving Characteristics
Typhoon Kim (198009) at 1980年7月19日20时在Northwest Pacific洋面 formed, 初始Position为9.7°N, 151.6°E. 在整个生命史中, 该Typhoon 呈现出稳定的NW toward MovingTrend, 未出现明显的路径转折或回旋现象. 从经纬度变化来看, Typhoon 中心自E toward W横跨广阔海域, 经度从151.6°E持续W移至113.5°E, 纬度则由9.7°N逐渐N抬至24.2°N. 尽管Moving direction总体保持一致, 但Moving速度在不同阶段有所差异: 在Tropical Depression阶段, 横 toward 跨度较大; Go to Severe Typhoon及Super Typhoon阶段后, track points分布相对密集, 显示移速可能受环境引导气流影响略有调整. 值得注意的是, 该Typhoon 全程无Landfall记录, 最终在S海N部海域减弱消散, 其路径主要经过开阔洋面, 对land无直接撞击影响.
Intensity Evolution Analysis
Kim的Intensity演变经历了典型的“快速增强—巅峰维持—迅速减弱”过程. formed初期为Tropical Depression, 气压1006hPa, wind speed10m/s. 7月22日 intensified into Tropical Storm后, Go to 快速增强期, 仅用约48h便从Tropical Storm发展为Super Typhoon. 7月24日20时达到巅峰状态, 中心最低气压降至908hPa, max wind 达60m/s, 确立其Super Typhoon等级. 然而, 巅峰状态维持Time较短, 随后Intensity开始波动下降. 7月25日08时虽仍维持Severe Typhoon级别, 但气压已回升至920hPa; 至7月25日20时, 进一步 weakened into Typhoon , 气压升至965hPa. 此后减弱Trend加速, 7月26日晚降为Severe Tropical Storm, 直至7月28日02时 weakened into Tropical Depression并结束观测, 整个过程展现了强烈的能量释放与耗散特征.
Same-Name Comparison
Among the typhoons named Kim, the 1980 storm had exceptionally strong intensity. Compared with Kim in 1983, whose peak intensity was only tropical storm with a central pressure of 995 hPa, and Kim in 1971, which peaked as a severe tropical storm with a central pressure of 980 hPa, Kim in 1980 was significantly stronger. Even among the other super typhoons named Kim, it ranked second by minimum pressure, behind only Kim in 1986, with 920 hPa in 1977 and 908 hPa in 1980. This makes the 1980 storm an extreme high-intensity case within the series of storms sharing the name.

FAQ
Typhoon Kim was the 1980s Typhoon.
The identifier 198009 is the historical number used by the CMA for Kim, meaning the ninth typhoon of 1980, while its international name was KIM. The international numbering system for the Northwest Pacific did not begin until 1981. Before then, agencies used different numbering systems, so the numbers assigned by the JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China’s meteorological authorities may not correspond directly.
Where does Typhoon Kim's track data come from?
Path. Data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (CMA-STI); wind speed refers to 2-min sustained wind speed. Track points at intermediate times are encrypted based on original operational positioning data, while wind speed and pressure are interpolated using best-track anchor points.
What is the highest level of Typhoon Kim?
Typhoon Kim peak intensity is Super Typhoon, max wind 60m/s, minimum central pressure 908 hPa.
Typhoon Kimlandfall?
According to records, Typhoon Kim is not in our coastal landfall.
