Typhoon Wukong Route Analysis
Track Movement Features
2024 Typhoon 8 “Wukong” shows a stable and continuous NW toward MovingTrend during the observation time period (August 13, 2012 at 14 am to August 14, 2012 at 14 pm). Based on analysis of data from 9 route sampling points, the Typhoon center starts at lat 27.9°N, 150.0° ocean area, eventually Moving to lat 30.4°N, 148.0° near.
From the Moving speed point of view, the Typhoon pre-period (13th 14th to 14th 05th) Moving is relatively slow, the latitude moves only from 27.9°NN to 28.5°N, the length of W moves 0.5°, the average per hour toward N pushes about 0.1 latitude units. however, since 14th 08th, the Typhoon Moving speed significantly accelerated, the latitude within 6h from 28.5°N rapidly jumped to 30.4°N, the length while toward W significantly deviated 1.5°, showing the influence of the high-latitude W wind belt guided air flow enhanced, the route toward NE score increased characteristics.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
From the first sample point to the last sample point, its central minimum air pressure is alwaysined at 998hPa, the maximum continuous wind speed isined at 18m/s, the level is constant to Tropical Storm. No signs of decrease in air pressure or increase in wind speed are shown in the data series, indicating that the system has not experienced significant reinforcement during this period, nor has there been a weakening dissipation trend, the structure may be saturated or restricted by environmental vertical wind shifts, and it is difficult to further develop.
与历届同名Typhoon 相比, 2024年“Wukong”的peak intensity弱 at 2018年第11号Typhoon “Wukong” (巅峰Severe Tropical Storm, minimum pressure 980hPa) 及2000年第16号Typhoon “Wukong” (巅峰Severe Typhoon) . 其Intensity指标与2012年第25号Typhoon “Wukong”完全一致, 后者peak intensity同为Tropical Storm, minimum pressure 亦为998hPa. 这表明2024年“Wukong”属 at 历史上同名Typhoon 中Intensity较弱的一类, 主要Active at 远洋海域, 未对land构成直接威胁, 其生命史特征更倾 toward at 短寿命或快速过境的弱Tropical Cyclone 系统.
