FAQ
Which numbered typhoon of 1946 was Typhoon ALMA?
ALMA’s 194613 is a historical identifier used by the CMA, referring to the 13th typhoon of 1946, with the international name ALMA. 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 (USA), and China’s meteorological authorities used their own numbering, which may differ for the same typhoon and therefore cannot be compared directly.
Where does Typhoon ALMA’s track data 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 of Typhoon ALMA?
Typhoon ALMA peak intensity is Super Typhoon, max wind 61m/s, minimum central pressure - hPa.
Did Typhoon ALMA make landfall?
According to historical records, Typhoon ALMA did not make landfall along China’s coast.
