[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon KATE (No.194522, a historical number from before 1981) was a 1945 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity: severe tropical storm, maximum wind: 30 m/s, minimum central pressure: -hPa, no landfall in China, numbered off on 1945-10-06, with 33 track points recorded throughout its lifetime.
Numbering system: The internationally unified numbering system for the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by JMA (Japan), the regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1945. The number 194522 is the historical number retained by the CMA, and the numbers assigned that year by JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (USA), and China’s meteorological agencies to the same typhoon might differ, so they cannot be compared directly.
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.
