[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon FAYE (No.194905, a pre-1981 historical number) was a 1949 Northwest Pacific typhoon. It peaked as a severe typhoon, with maximum winds of 45m/s and a minimum central pressure of 965hPa. It did not make landfall in China, was no longer numbered on 1949-07-19, and has 35 recorded track points.
Numbering note: The internationally unified numbering system for the Northwest Pacific was introduced by JMA (Japan), the designated regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, in 1981. This system did not exist in 1949. The 194905 designation is the historical number retained by the CMA. The numbers assigned that year by JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (USA), and China’s meteorological authorities may differ for the same typhoon and therefore cannot be directly compared.
