[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon MAGGIE (No.194609, a historical number from before 1981) was a 1946 Northwest Pacific typhoon. It peaked as a severe tropical storm, with maximum winds of 30m/s and a minimum central pressure of -hPa. It did not make landfall in China. It was designated off on 1946-08-27, with 21 track points recorded throughout its lifetime.
Code explanation: The internationally unified code for the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by JMA (Japan), the Tokyo Regional Specialized Meteorological Center, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1946. The number 194609 is the historical number retained by the CMA. The numbers assigned that year by JMA (Japan), the USA Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and China’s meteorological authorities may differ and 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.
