[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon PAT (No.194821, a historical identifier used before 1981) was a 1948 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Its peak intensity was severe tropical storm, with maximum winds of 30 m/s and minimum central pressure of -hPa. It did not make landfall in China and was numbered off on 1948-10-31. A total of 19 track points were recorded throughout its lifetime.
Identifier note: International standardized identifiers for Northwest Pacific typhoons have been assigned by JMA (Japan), the regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1948. The identifier 194821 is a historical identifier retained by the CMA. JMA (Japan), the USA Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and China’s meteorological agencies may have assigned different identifiers to the same typhoon 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.

FAQ
Which numbered typhoon of 1948 was Typhoon PAT?
Typhoon PAT carries the historical identifier 194821 retained by the CMA (the 21st numbered typhoon of 1948), while its international name is PAT. International standardized identifiers for Northwest Pacific typhoons were not introduced until 1981. Before then, JMA (Japan), the USA Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and China’s meteorological agencies each used their own numbering systems, so identifiers for the same typhoon may differ and cannot be directly compared.
Where does Typhoon PAT’s track data 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 of Typhoon PAT?
Typhoon PAT peak intensity is Severe Tropical Storm, max wind 30m/s, minimum central pressure - hPa.
Did Typhoon PAT make landfall?
According to historical records, Typhoon PAT did not make landfall along China's coast.
