[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon PAULINE (No.194716, a historical sequence number from 1981) was a 1947 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity: super typhoon, maximum wind: 51m/s, minimum central pressure: -hPa, no landfall in China, numbered off on 1947-10-08, with 25 track points recorded throughout its lifespan.
Code explanation: International numbering for Northwest Pacific typhoons has been assigned by the JMA (Japan), the regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1947, so 194716 is the historical sequence number retained by the CMA. The numbers assigned that year by the JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (USA), and China’s meteorological agencies 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.
