[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon GLADYS (No.194724, a historical numbering used before 1981) was a 1947 Northwest Pacific typhoon. It peaked as a typhoon, with maximum winds of 38 m/s; minimum central pressure: unavailable; it did not make landfall in China. It was last numbered on November 22, 1947, with 22 track points recorded throughout its lifetime.
Numbering explanation: International cyclone numbering in the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by JMA in Japan, the designated regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1947. The designation 194724 is based on the CMA’s historical numbering system. The numbering used that year by JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China’s meteorological authorities may differ for the same typhoon 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.

FAQ
What was the sequence number of Typhoon GLADYS in 1947?
The designation Typhoon GLADYS and the number 194724 are based on a historical numbering system used by the CMA for 1947 (the 24th typhoon of that year), while GLADYS was its international name. International cyclone numbering in the Northwest Pacific did not begin until 1981. Before then, JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China’s meteorological authorities each used their own numbering systems, which may differ for the same typhoon and therefore cannot be directly compared.
Where does the track data for Typhoon GLADYS 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 category of Typhoon GLADYS?
Typhoon GLADYS peak intensity is Typhoon , max wind 38m/s, minimum central pressure - hPa.
Did Typhoon GLADYS make landfall?
According to records, Typhoon GLADYS did not make landfall on the Chinese coast.
