The JTWC analyzed Mangkhut to have reached Category 5-equivalent intensity by 06:00 UTC, an intensity it would maintain for nearly four days. [16] The JMA assessed that the typhoon's central pressure bottomed out at 18:00 UTC, with 10-minute sustained winds of 205 km/h (125 mph) and a central minimum pressure of 905 hPa (mbar; 26.73 inHg).
The JTWC also upgraded Belal to a Category 1–equivalent tropical cyclone. [11] Belal began to curve southeastward under the influence of a ridge to its northeast. [ 10 ] At 18:00 UTC, Belal reached its peak intensity with 10-minute sustained winds of 140 km/h (85 mph) and a barometric pressure of 968 hPa (28.59 inHg). [ 12 ]
Severe Tropical Storm Ma-on, known in the Philippines as Severe Tropical Storm Florita, was a tropical cyclone that impacted the Philippines in late August 2022. The ninth named storm of the 2022 Pacific typhoon season, Ma-on originated as a disturbance over in the Pacific Ocean on August 18, and was upgraded to a tropical depression during the next day.
This intensity estimate was confirmed by a Hurricane hunter plane later on July 19, which measured a pressure of 974 mbar (28.8 inHg). An eye began to clear out on July 20. That same day, a Hurricane hunter aircraft recorded a pressure of 940 mbar (28 inHg). [ 6 ]
It reached its peak intensity about 1,050 km (650 mi) southeast of Tokyo, Japan at 18:00 UTC, with ten-minute maximum sustained winds at 185 km/h (115 mph) and the central pressure at 925 hPa (27.3 inHg) reported by the JMA, at an unusually high latitude for such powerful intensity. [16]
Additional intensification commenced with very conducive outflow and the primary rainband consolidating, and by the beginning of the next day, Faxai achieved its peak intensity; [1] 10-minute winds of 195 km/h (120 mph) and the lowest atmospheric pressure of 915 hPa (27.02 inHg) were assessed by the JMA, [3] whereas 1-minute winds were assessed ...
During this 12-hour period, the cyclone decayed rapidly, mainly in the lower troposphere. Twelve-hour height rises also occurred in the structure of the cyclone, with the air pressure increasing at various layers of the cyclone, ranging from 197 feet (60 m) at the surface level to 66 feet (20 m) at the 300 mbar (8.9 inHg)-level.
