[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon 26 (No.194826, a historical identifier predating 1981) was a 1948 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Its peak intensity was tropical storm, with maximum winds of 20 m/s and a minimum central pressure of -hPa. It did not make landfall in China and was dissipated on 1948-12-16, with 16 track points recorded throughout its lifetime.
Code note: The international standardized codes for the Northwest Pacific have been assigned by JMA (Japan), the designated regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1948. The identifier 194826 is a historical identifier used by CMA. JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (USA), and China’s meteorological authorities may have assigned different identifiers to the same typhoon that year, so they 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.
