Typhoon Podul trajectory analysis
Track and Movement Characteristics
Typhoon Podul (202511) developed over the Northwest Pacific and followed a generally stable WNW track. From its initial position at 19.5°N, 145.9°E on August 8 at 05:00 until landfall on August 13, the system mainly moved toward the WNW, with its latitude slowly increasing from 19.5°N to 22.6°N and its longitude shifting substantially westward from 145.9°E to 120.9°E. During this period, the track had little curvature, with no notable turns or stagnation, indicating relatively steady and strong steering currents.
该Typhoon 在穿越巴士海峡附近海域时路径略有N抬, 随后 at 8月13日13:00在Taiwan台E County太麻里乡coastal 实现首次Landfall. 穿越Taiwan岛后, 系统继续 toward NW, 横跨Taiwan海峡, 并 at 8月14日00:30在Fujian漳浦 Countycoastal 进行第二次Landfall. LandfallFujian后, Typhoon 深入内陆, 路径转 toward W并逐渐减弱, 最终 at 8月15日02:00在Guangxi附近 (25.1°N, 109.5°E) weakened into Tropical Depression并结束code. 整个路径跨度大, 覆盖了从远洋到我国SEcoastal 及内陆的广阔区域.
Intensity evolution and historical comparison
Podul的Intensity演变呈现出典型的“快速增强—巅峰维持—Landfall减弱”特征. formed初期为Tropical Storm, 经过约4天的海上发展, at 8月12日升级为Typhoon , 并在8月13日06:00达到peak intensity, 中心最低气压降至955hPa, max wind 达42m/s, 评定为Severe Typhoon. 值得注意的是, 在接近和LandfallTaiwan期间 (8月13日06:00至13:00) , 其核心Intensity保持在巅峰状态, 显示出极强的结构稳定性. 然而, 受地形摩擦及Landfall影响, 其在穿越Taiwan后Intensity迅速衰减, Go to Fujian时已降为Tropical Storm, inland后进一步减弱.
Compared to the historic Typhoon, Podul’s Intensity in 2025 was significantly higher at the 2013 (top Tropical Storm, 1000hPa) and 2007 (top Tropical Storm, 998hPa) similar systems, but weak at 2001’s Super TyphoonPodul (898hPa) . This suggests that while the “Podul” name corresponded to different degrees of Typhoon, the process in 2025 belonged to the Typehoon event at Middle-High Intensity, its 955hPa lowest atmospheric pressure reflects a stronger destructive potential, especially during the double Landfall, which constitutes a continuing threat of winds along the area.
