1948 Typhoon Typhoon archive

[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon AGNES (No.194823, the historical number used before 1981) was a 1948 Northwest Pacific typhoon. It peaked as a severe typhoon, with maximum winds of 48 m/s and a minimum central pressure of -hPa. It did not make landfall in China and was numbered off on 1948-11-20. A total of 31 track points were recorded throughout its lifetime.

Numbering system: The unified international numbering system for the Northwest Pacific has been operated by JMA (Japan), the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1948. The number 194823 is the historical identifier used by the CMA. JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the USA, and China’s meteorological agencies may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so those numbers 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.
