Super Typhoon Eve-1996

A Tropical Upper Tropospheric Trough spawned Tropical Depression 7W on July 10 over the open Western Pacific. It tracked generally west-northwestward, strengthening to a tropical storm on the 13th. On the 14th Eve became a typhoon, which was followed by a period of explosive deepening to a 160 mph Super Typhoon, with a pressure drop of 70 mb from early on the 15th to early on the 16th. An eyewall replacement cycle weakened Eve to a 115 mph typhoon, but as the outer eyewall contracted, the storm again reached wind speeds of 135 mph before hitting southern Japan on the 18th. Rapidly weakening over the mountains, Eve turned eastward over the islands and the last warning was issued on the 20th. It restrengthened to a tropical storm east of Japan, and continued northeastward until dissipation on the 27th. Eve, despite being a Category 4 at landfall, caused no reported deaths and only 9 injuries.
