[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon ELNORA (No.194722, a historical number from before 1981) was a 1947 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Its peak intensity was severe tropical storm, with maximum winds of 25m/s and minimum central pressure of -hPa. It did not make landfall in China. It was numbered off on 1947-11-12, with 12 track points recorded throughout its lifetime.
Code explanation: The internationally unified code for the Northwest Pacific was assigned by JMA (Japan), the regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, beginning in 1981. This system did not exist in 1947. The designation 194722 is a historical number continued by the CMA. JMA (Japan), the USA Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and China’s meteorological agencies may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon in that year, so they 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.
