Typhoon Soulik trajectory
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Soulik (202415) maintained a stable westward-moving trend throughout the observation period, with a straight track and no significant turns or loops. From 17:00 on September 17 to 08:00 on September 18, its center latitude moved slowly south from 17.4°N to 16.5°N, while its longitude shifted rapidly west from 117.1°E to 112.7°E, indicating that it was primarily guided westward with a slight southward component. From 08:00 to 11:00 on September 18, the system slowed and nearly stagnated near 16.5°N, 112.6°E. From 14:00 on September 18, its track shifted west-northwest, and its latitude gradually rose to 17.6°N. After September 18, the system adjusted course again and moved west-southwest, ultimately reaching 16.5°N, 106.8°E at 17:00 on September 19. Throughout its lifecycle, the system remained at sea and made no landfall.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
In terms of Intensity changes, Typhoon Soulik performed the characteristics of “firstining, then briefly enhancing, then weakening”. In the course of 36h from September 17th to September 19th 05th, the system Pressure stableined at 1002hPa, max windined 15m/s, the level continued as Tropical Depression. Until September 19th 08th, the system Intensity briefly increased, Pressure dropped to 998hPa, max wind increased to 18m/s, reached the level of Tropical Storm, which is also the peak intensity in its history. However, the high Intensity stateined only about 9h, until September 19th 17th, the air pressure returned to 1002hPa, wind speed back to 15m/s, and re-gradeed to Tropical Depression
In comparison with typhoon, the intensity of Soulik in 2024 is significantly weaker. in 2013 the 7th typhoon Soulik at the peak was Super Typhoon, the minimum pressure reached 935hPa; in 2018 the 19th typhoon Soulik at the peak was Severe Typhoon, the minimum pressure was 940hPa.
