[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon BERNIDA (No.194702, the historical numbering used before 1981) was a 1947 Northwest Pacific typhoon. It reached typhoon intensity, with maximum winds of 41m/s; its minimum central pressure is unknown. It did not make landfall in China, and its numbering was discontinued on 1947-05-17. A total of 17 track points were recorded throughout its lifetime.
Numbering explanation: International uniform numbering in the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by the JMA (Japan), the EMO Regional Specialized Meteorological Center, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1947. The number 194702 is the historical identifier used by the CMA. The numbers assigned that year by the JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (USA), and Chinese 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.
