Typhoon Jelawat trajectory
Path and Moving Characteristics
Typhoon Jelawat (2023), the 17th typhoon of 2023, had a relatively short life cycle, with observational data covering 8:00 on December 17 to 20:00 on December 18, 2023. Analysis of its track coordinates shows that it generally moved toward the WNW, then turned westward with a slight trend toward the NW. During the initial stage, from 08:00 to 14:00 on the 17th, the system was near latitude 7.5° and moved slowly west from 128.6°E to 128.1°E, at a relatively steady speed. Between 17:00 and 20:00 on the 17th, its latitude increased slightly to 7.6°N while it continued moving west to 127.7°E, indicating a slight northward component.
Go to 18 days after the path appears a noticeable turning point. 02:00 to 05:00, the systemins the path toward S adjustment, while the latitude remains at 7.8°N. However, starting from 08:00, the latitude gradually S drops to 11:00 at 7.5°N and 14:00 at 7.3°N, indicating that the guiding airflow may change, leading to the path toward S adjustment. It is worth noting that during the end of life history (18:00 to 20:00) , the latitude returns to 7.4°N and 7.7°N, the length rapidly W moves to 125.1°E, showing that the system is once again drawn by the NW toward airflow during the weakening.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
During the entire period of the observation window, its peak intensity is only at Tropical Storm level, the maximum continuous wind speed isined at 18m/s, the central minimum air pressure is 1000hPa. From the 17th 08:00 to the 18th 11:00, the intensity remains highly stable, wind speed and air pressure have not changed significantly. however, from the 18th 14:00, the system Intensity begins to weaken, degrade to Tropical Depression, the max wind drops to 16m/s, the Pressure rises to 1002hPa, until the end of the observation stillins this Intensity, indicating its loose structure, lack of energy support for further development.
与历史同名Typhoon 相比, 2023年“Jelawat”的Intensity极弱. 回顾历届数据, 2018年第3号Typhoon “Jelawat”曾达到Super Typhoon级别, minimum pressure 低至935hPa; 2012年第17号Typhoon “Jelawat”同样为Super Typhoon, minimum pressure 更是达到惊人的905hPa. 相比之下, 2023年该codeTyphoon 的最低气压 (1000hPa) 远高 at 历史Severe Typhoon案例, max wind (18m/s) 也远未达到Super Typhoon标准. 这种巨大的Intensity差异反映了不同年份大气环流背景及海温条件对Typhoon formed与发展的显著影响, 2023年“Jelawat”仅表现为一个短暂且微弱的Tropical Cyclone 过程.
