[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon GRACE (No.194512, the pre-1981 historical number) was a 1945 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Its peak intensity was severe tropical storm, with maximum winds of 30 m/s and a minimum central pressure of -hPa. It did not make landfall in China, was decommissioned on 1945-08-22, and had 29 recorded track points throughout its lifetime.
Numbering note: The unified international numbering system for the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by the JMA (Japan), the specialized regional meteorological center for region E, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1945. The number 194512 is a historical number retained by the CMA. The JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the USA, and China's meteorological authorities may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so these numbers cannot be directly compared.
Track data source: USA Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) best-track data. China Meteorological Administration best-track dataset begins in 1949 and does not include this typhoon. JTWC wind speeds are 1-min sustained wind speeds, generally about 10% higher than the 2-min sustained wind speeds used in China.

FAQ
Which number typhoon was Typhoon GRACE in 1945?
Typhoon GRACE's 194512 is a historical number retained by the CMA (12th typhoon of 1945), while GRACE was its international name. The unified international numbering system for the Northwest Pacific did not begin until 1981. Before then, agencies such as the JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the USA, and China's meteorological authorities used different numbers for the same typhoon, so these numbers cannot be directly compared.
Where does the track data for Typhoon GRACE come from?
Track data source: USA Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) best-track data. China Meteorological Administration best-track dataset begins in 1949 and does not include this typhoon. JTWC wind speeds are 1-min sustained wind speeds, generally about 10% higher than the 2-min sustained wind speeds used in China.
What was the peak intensity level of Typhoon GRACE?
Typhoon GRACE peak intensity is Severe Tropical Storm, max wind 30m/s, minimum central pressure - hPa.
Did Typhoon GRACE make landfall?
According to records, Typhoon GRACE did not make landfall on China's coast.
Where can I view typhoon GRACE's live track map?
