[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon DOLLY (No.194603, the historical number used before 1981) was a 1946 Northwest Pacific typhoon. It peaked as a super typhoon, with maximum winds of 56 m/s and a minimum central pressure of -hPa. It did not make landfall in China. Its final advisory was issued on 1946-06-23, with 28 track points recorded throughout its lifetime.
Numbering note: The internationally unified numbering system for the Northwest Pacific has been implemented by the JMA in Japan, the regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1946. The number 194603 is a historical number retained by the CMA. The numbers assigned to the same typhoon that year by the JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China's meteorological authorities may differ and 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.
