Hurricane Kenneth 2 Hurricane Kenneth 18–23 AUGUST 2017 SYNOPTIC HISTORY Kenneth formed from the interaction of two tropical waves which moved off the west coast of Africa on 29 July and 2 August. The first wave moved across the Atlantic Ocean and northern South America at low latitudes and reached the eastern North Pacific Ocean on 8 August. At that point, the wave became more convectively active, but it moved only slowly westward for the next week due to its position south of Hurricane Franklin over the Bay of Campeche. In the meantime, the second tropical wave spawned Hurricane Gert over the western Atlantic, with the southern portion of the wave reaching the eastern North Pacific waters on 12 August. With the subtropical ridge rebuilding over the Gulf of Mexico, the second wave moved at a faster speed toward the west and reached the first tropical wave on 16 August (Fig. 1). The interaction of the two waves caused the development of a low by 1200 UTC 17 August about 530 n mi southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico. Convective banding became more organized and persistent through the day, and the low was designated as a tropical depression by 0600 UTC 18 August about 585 n mi south- southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula.

  • Influence of the Size of Supertyphoon Megi (2010) on SST Cooling
    VOLUME 146 MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW MARCH 2018 Influence of the Size of Supertyphoon Megi (2010) on SST Cooling IAM-FEI PUN Graduate Institute of Hydrological and Oceanic Sciences, National Central University, Taoyuan, Taiwan I.-I. LIN,CHUN-CHI LIEN, AND CHUN-CHIEH WU Department of Atmospheric Sciences, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan (Manuscript received 28 February 2017, in final form 13 December 2017) ABSTRACT Supertyphoon Megi (2010) left behind two very contrasting SST cold-wake cooling patterns between the Philippine Sea (1.58C) and the South China Sea (78C). Based on various radii of radial winds, the authors found that the size of Megi doubles over the South China Sea when it curves northward. On average, the radius of maximum wind (RMW) increased from 18.8 km over the Philippine Sea to 43.1 km over the South 2 China Sea; the radius of 64-kt (33 m s 1) typhoon-force wind (R64) increased from 52.6 to 119.7 km; the radius 2 of 50-kt (25.7 m s 1) damaging-force wind (R50) increased from 91.8 to 210 km; and the radius of 34-kt 2 (17.5 m s 1) gale-force wind (R34) increased from 162.3 to 358.5 km. To investigate the typhoon size effect, the authors conduct a series of numerical experiments on Megi-induced SST cooling by keeping other factors unchanged, that is, typhoon translation speed and ocean subsurface thermal structure. The results show that if it were not for Megi’s size increase over the South China Sea, the during-Megi SST cooling magnitude would have been 52% less (reduced from 48 to 1.98C), the right bias in cooling would have been 60% (or 30 km) less, and the width of the cooling would have been 61% (or 52 km) less, suggesting that typhoon size is as important as other well- known factors on SST cooling.

  • Radial Distributions of Sea Surface Temperature and Their Impacts on the Rapid Intensification of Typhoon Hato (2017)
    atmosphere Article Radial Distributions of Sea Surface Temperature and Their Impacts on the Rapid Intensification of Typhoon Hato (2017) Ze Zhang 1, , Weimin Zhang 1,2,*, Wenjing Zhao 1 and Chengwu Zhao 1 1 College of Meteorology and Oceanography, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China; [email protected] (Z.Z.); [email protected] (W.Z.); [email protected] (C.Z.) 2 Key Laboratory of Software Engineering for Complex Systems, Changsha 410073, China * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-0731-8702-1601 Received: 30 December 2019; Accepted: 20 January 2020; Published: 23 January 2020 Abstract: As a category-3 typhoon, Hato (2017) experienced the notable rapid intensification (RI) over the hot sea surface before its landfall. The RI process and the influences of local sea surface temperature (SST) patterns on the evolution of Hato were well captured and carefully investigated using a high-resolution air–sea coupled model. To further explore the close relationship between the radial distributions of SST and storm evolution, a sensitive experiment with time-fixed SST was also performed. Results showed that the time-fixed SST experiment produced earlier RI following the rapid core structure adjustment, as higher SST in the core region was found favorable to increasing the near-surface water vapor and latent heat flux. Strong updrafts were thus facilitated inside the eyewall, inducing the eyewall contraction and RI of the storm. In contrast, cooler SST inside the core region should account for the delay of RI as the intense convection located in the outer rainbands, inhibiting the transportation of energy into the inner-core.
