  • The MJO As Monitored by Both the RMM and CPC Velocity Potential Index Weakened Over the Past Few Days
    The MJO as monitored by both the RMM and CPC velocity potential index weakened over the past few days. This was expected as various convective signals are competing over the global tropics. The latest ensemble guidance suggests that a coherent enhanced phase may emerge over the Maritime Continent and propagate over the West Pacific by the end of Week-2. This is due to the fast eastward propagation of a Kelvin wave into the Eastern Hemisphere as well as the developing El Nino base state. Tropical Storm Rumbia and Typhoon Soulik formed over the West Pacific as forecast during the past few days. Tropical Storm Rumbia made landfall late August 16 near Shanghai, while Typhoon Soulik is forecast to track northwestward while intensifying to the equivalent of a category 3 on the Saffir- Simpson scale. A landfall over southern Japan on August 21 is currently forecast by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center. Over the East Pacific Hurricane Lane formed as a depression at 00Z August 15. It is forecast to take a track similar to Hurricane Hector, tracking nearly due west near 15N, passing south of Hawaii by the middle of next week. Subtropical Storm Ernesto formed near 38N over the North Atlantic on August 15, and is rapidly moving northeastward, forecast to become post-tropical by later today. Tropical cyclone (TC) formation is highly likely over the West Pacific in the next day or two, about 10 degrees east of where Typhoon Soulik formed. Over the East Pacific, there is a low risk of TC formation east of Hurricane Lane.

  • Typhoon 31W "Haiyan", Philippines: “Yolanda”
    Thursday, 7 November 2013 Update on Super-Typhoon “Haiyan” WHAT: Typhoon 31W "Haiyan", Philippines: “Yolanda” WHERE: Central Philippines / Earthquake affected area on BOHOL / CEBU WHEN: Night November 7/8 and Friday 8 November 2013 INTENSITY: Maximum intensity right now, 7 November, 12 UTC average wind speed 150 kt (278 kph), gusts 180 kt (333 kph), Cat 5 crossing central Philippines as Cat 4 and Cat 3 typhoon (gusts 296 kph near storm center) CONSEQUENCES FOR BOHOL 07/08 NOVEMBER 2013: - Gusts 80-140 kph - Torrential rain - landslides - flash floods - significant storm surge (~2-3 m above normal) - damage in crop - interrupted infrastructure (power lines, streets, water supply….) - very muddy surface PROBABILITY: Landfall on the island of Leyte (or Samar) around 8 November, 03 UTC Center of storm expected to pass Bohol in a distance of 150 km to the north, so most damaging winds and rain areas won’t strike directly Manila also will be outside most damaging storm area CEDIM - Haiyan is a very strong typhoon (will be probably one of the strongest ever) - will affect BOHOL earthquake area (multihazard scenario). Most intense wind and rain probably not on BOHOL. However, flash floods, landslides, storm gusts and storm surge are imminent. PRELIMINARY INFORMATION as of 7 November 2013, 12 UTC Haiyan is the fourth Cat 5 storm in the Western Pacific so far in 2013 Haiyan is the fifth Cat 5 storm on Earth so far in 2013 this is the highest number of Cat 5s since 2009, which had four Cat 5s in the Western Pacific and one in the Eastern Pacific.

Estimating the severity of the impacts of tropical cyclones (TCs) that make landfall on the Chinese mainland based on observations from 1401 meteorological stations was proposed in a previous study, including an index combining TC-induced precipitation and wind (IPWT) and further information, such as the corresponding category level (CAT_IPWT), an index of TC-induced wind (IWT), and an index of TC-induced precipitation (IPT). The current version of the dataset includes TCs that made landfall from 1949–2018; the dataset will be extended each year. Long-term trend analyses demonstrate that the severity of the TC impacts on the Chinese mainland have increased, as embodied by the annual mean IPWT values, and increases in TC- induced precipitation are the main contributor to this increase.

    A DIAGNOSTIC STUDY OF RAINFALL EVOLUTION IN A WEAK LANDFALLING TROPICAL CYCLONE OVER EAST CHINA A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN ATMOSPHERIC SCIENCES May 2021 By Lichun Tang Thesis Committee: Yuqing Wang, Chairperson Pao-Shin Chu Torri Giuseppe All rights reserved ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS It is my honor to have this opportunity to conduct this research work as a master’s student of the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa. Here I would like to thank my advisor Prof. Yuqing Wang and Zifeng Yu, for their great patience and extraordinary support in instructing me on how to describe phenomena and diagnose and explain the mechanisms. This thesis would have been impossible without their advice and support. Additionally, I want to express my thanks to the committee members, Prof. Pao-Shin Chu and Prof. Torri Giuseppe, for their kind participation and valuable discussions and suggestions. Lastly, I would also like to express my appreciation to my parents and friends, Yingxin Zhang and Rong Fei, for their passion and patience when I was having trouble preparing this thesis. They supported me and were always willing to help me during my study. 1 ABSTRACT Tropical storm Rumbia (2018) made landfall over East China on 16 August 2018 with a moderate intensity but led to long-lasting and heavy landfall, causing causality and tremendous economic loss to East China. In this study, the fifth generation European Centre for Medium- Range Weather Forecasting (ECMWF) reanalysis (ERA-5) data, the best-track tropical cyclone data, and rainfall observations from China Meteorological Administration (CMA) were used to diagnose the rainfall evolution of Rumbia after its landfall.

  • 二零一八熱帶氣旋tropical Cyclones in 2018
    156 第四節 熱帶氣旋統計表 表4.1是二零一八年在北太平洋西部及南海區域（即由赤道至北緯45度、東 經 100度至180 度所包括的範圍）的熱帶氣旋一覽。表內所列出的日期只說明某熱帶氣旋在上述範圍內 出現的時間，因而不一定包括整個風暴過程。這個限制對表內其他元素亦同樣適用。 表4.2是天文台在二零一八年為船舶發出的熱帶氣旋警告的次數、時段、首個及末個警告 發出的時間。當有熱帶氣旋位於香港責任範圍內時（即由北緯10至30度、東經105至125 度所包括的範圍），天文台會發出這些警告。表內使用的時間為協調世界時。 表4.3是二零一八年熱帶氣旋警告信號發出的次數及其時段的摘要。表內亦提供每次熱帶 氣旋警告信號生效的時間和發出警報的次數。表內使用的時間為香港時間。 表4.4是一九五六至二零一八年間熱帶氣旋警告信號發出的次數及其時段的摘要。 表4.5是一九五六至二零一八年間每年位於香港責任範圍內以及每年引致天文台需要發 出熱帶氣旋警告信號的熱帶氣旋總數。 表4.6是一九五六至二零一八年間天文台發出各種熱帶氣旋警告信號的最長、最短及平均 時段。 表4.7是二零一八年當熱帶氣旋影響香港時本港的氣象觀測摘要。資料包括熱帶氣旋最接 近香港時的位置及時間和當時估計熱帶氣旋中心附近的最低氣壓、京士柏、香港國際機 場及橫瀾島錄得的最高風速、香港天文台錄得的最低平均海平面氣壓以及香港各潮汐測 量站錄得的最大風暴潮（即實際水位高出潮汐表中預計的部分，單位為米）。 表4.8.1是二零一八年位於香港600公里範圍內的熱帶氣旋及其為香港所帶來的雨量。 表4.8.2是一八八四至一九三九年以及一九四七至二零一八年十個為香港帶來最多雨量 的熱帶氣旋和有關的雨量資料。 表4.9是自一九四六年至二零一八年間，天文台發出十號颶風信號時所錄得的氣象資料， 包括熱帶氣旋吹襲香港時的最近距離及方位、天文台錄得的最低平均海平面氣壓、香港 各站錄得的最高60分鐘平均風速和最高陣風。 表4.10是二零一八年熱帶氣旋在香港所造成的損失。資料參考了各政府部門和公共事業 機構所提供的報告及本地報章的報導，當中超強颱風山竹(1822)引致香港直接經濟損失 的估算的詳情載於附件一。 表4.11是一九六零至二零一八年間熱帶氣旋在香港所造成的人命傷亡及破壞。資料參考 了各政府部門和公共事業機構所提供的報告及本地報章的報導。 表4.12是二零一八年天文台發出的熱帶氣旋路徑預測驗証。 157 Section 4 TROPICAL CYCLONE STATISTICS AND TABLES TABLE 4.1 is a list of tropical cyclones in 2018 in the western North Pacific and the South China Sea (i.e. the area bounded by the Equator, 45°N, 100°E and 180°). The dates cited are the residence times of each tropical cyclone within the above-mentioned region and as such might not cover the full life- span. This limitation applies to all other elements in the table. TABLE 4.2 gives the number of tropical cyclone warnings for shipping issued by the Hong Kong Observatory in 2018, the durations of these warnings and the times of issue of the first and last warnings for all tropical cyclones in Hong Kong's area of responsibility (i.e. the area bounded by 10°N, 30°N, 105°E and 125°E). Times are given in hours and minutes in UTC. TABLE 4.3 presents a summary of the occasions/durations of the issuing of tropical cyclone warning signals in 2018. The sequence of the signals displayed and the number of tropical cyclone warning bulletins issued for each tropical cyclone are also given.
