This system did not exist in 1949. The number 194932 is a historical identifier retained by the CMA. The numbers assigned that year by the JMA, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China's meteorological authorities may differ for the same typhoon and therefore cannot be compared directly.
