Secuencias del tifón Tip en octubre de 1979.
Tip ha sido el ciclón tropical más extenso de la historia y se generó en la región Pacífico Oeste; la región que produce el mayor número de sistemas tropicales a nivel mundial y de mayor intensidad.
Esta descomunal tormenta que afortunádamente no entró diréctamente a tierra en su máxima intensidad produjo vientos sostenidos de 305 km/h o 190 m/h y alcanzó una presión mínima de 870 mb el día 12 ya con características de super tifón..
Es de tomarse a consideración el tamaño de este monstruo: 2220 km o 1380 millas de diámetro que hacen palidecer a cualquier otro sistema tropical conocido. En la imágen inicial se observa la comparación con otro tifón (Sarah) de dimensiones normales y Tip a la derecha. En la secuencia global es comparable su extensión con la distancia entre la costa norte y sur de Australia.

Afectó Guam y Japón provocando 86 muertes directas, esto debido mas que nada a las enormes inundaciones que dejó a su paso como tifón categoría 1 y tormenta tropical.

Últimos estudios sugieren que hay 2 tifones: Angela, 1995 y Gay, 1992 además de 1 ciclón, Mónica 2006; pudieron tener igual o menor presión que Tip. Continúa el debate a falta de datos contundentes.

Tifón Tip - 1Tifón récord:
Ciclón tropical con la mayor extensión conocida: 2220 km (1380 millas) de diámetro.
Radio de acción de vientos de tormenta tropical: +1000 km o +600 millas.
Menor presión central confirmada: 870 mb.


ENGLISH:

Sequences of the typhoon Tip in October, 1979.
Tip has been the most extensive tropical cyclone of the history and it was generated in the region West Pacific; the region that produces the biggest number of tropical systems on a global scale and of major intensity.
This extraodinary typhoon that fortunately did not enter
direct to land his maximum intensity produced supported winds of 305 km/h or 190 m/h and it reached a minimal
pressure of 870 mb on the 12th already with characteristics of super typhoon..
It is of the size of this monster takes to consideration: 2220
km or 1380 miles of diameter that make turn pale to any other
tropical well-known system. In the initial image it is observed
comparison with another typhoon of normal dimensions (Sarah) and Tip of the side right. In the global sequence his extension is comparable with it distances between the north and south coast of Australia.


It affected Guam and Japan provoking 86 direct deaths; this owed more than anything to the enormous floods that it left to his step as typhoon category 1 and tropical storm.

Recent studies suggest that there are 2 typhoons: Angela, 1995 and Gay, 1992 in addition of 1 cyclone Monica 2006; could be equal to or less pressure to Tip. A debate continues in the absence of conclusive data.

Typhoon Tip - 1Typhoon record:
Tropical cyclone with the biggest well-known extension: 2220 km (1380 miles) of diameter.
Radio of tropical action of gale-force winds: +1000 km or +600
miles.
Minor central confirmed pressure: 870 mb.

  • i wonder if u culd fit ts marco in da eye of tracy which itself goes in da eye of tip.thx staccato26 to let me sprout my idea staccato26 wanna bii my 1st friend???

  • A greeting friend!.. the size of the eye of Tip was small: 15 kilometers of diameter; it is typical of very powerful hurricanes the small eye (although it is not a rule), in another cyclone as Mónica if it would enter with facility. Also the size that is mentioned of these systems; Marco and Tracy, is relative since it is necessary to bear in mind the wind radio strongly of hurricane or tropical storm :)

  • 1st comment!!

    Is that on 0:44 (left, near Tip) is another cyclone?

  • Hey Rowan .. the typhoon of the left side of Tip her name been Sarah and reached category 3 in the Sea of China .. click in more info .. luck.
