[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon MABEL (No.194803, a historical number used before 1981) was a 1948 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Peak intensity: Typhoon; maximum wind: 41m/s; minimum central pressure: -hPa. It did not make landfall in China. The final advisory was issued on 1948-06-02, with 18 track points recorded throughout.
Numbering note: The unified international numbering system for the Northwest Pacific was introduced by the JMA (Japan), the regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, in 1981. This system did not exist in 1948. The number 194803 is a historical number retained by the CMA. The numbers assigned that year by the JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the USA, and China’s meteorological agencies 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.
