<strong>Typhoon</strong> <strong>Committee</strong> Annual Review 2009<br />

with 137.4 km and 224.7 km for the first initial<br />

time and 148.3 km and 200.4 km for the latter<br />

initial time respectively. Furthermore, in Tab. 10<br />

it can be seen that starting from 2009100406 to<br />

2009100500 when TY PARMA hit Philippines<br />

and slowed down its motion moving back and<br />

forth the model forecasts had large errors for<br />

time periods from +36h to +72h. When PARMA<br />

started to move into the Southern China Sea<br />

on 2009101012 the track forecasts also had big<br />

errors for forecast time +24h to +72h.<br />

explanations are similar to those in Fig.6.<br />
