[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon 2号 (No.195002, 1981年前的历史序号) is a 1950 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity Super Typhoon, max wind 70m/s, minimum central pressure 930hPa, 未在我国Landfall, 1950-05-16 was numbered off, 全程记录40 track points. (注: 1970年代以前的Typhoon Intensity主要依靠飞机侦察和船舶报告估算, wind speed记录普遍偏高, 此为China气象局最佳路径原始值, 与现代卫星时代数据不宜直接比较. )
Code explanation: the international standardized codes for the Northwest Pacific have been assigned by the JMA (Japan), the designated regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1950. 195002 is the historical number continued by the CMA. The numbers used that year by the JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center of the USA, and China’s meteorological agencies for the same typhoon may differ and cannot be compared directly.
Track data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (CMA-STI); wind speeds are 2-minute sustained wind speeds.

FAQ
Typhoon 2 was the 1950s Typhoon.
The number 195002 for Typhoon No. 2 is the historical number continued by the CMA, meaning the second typhoon of 1950. The international standardized codes for the Northwest Pacific were introduced only in 1981. Before then, each agency used its own numbering system, so the numbers assigned by the JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center of the USA, and China’s meteorological agencies for the same typhoon may differ and cannot be compared directly.
Where does the track data for Typhoon No. 2 come from?
Track data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (CMA-STI); wind speeds are 2-minute sustained wind speeds.
What is the highest level of Typhoon 2?
Typhoon No. 2 peaked as a super typhoon, with maximum winds of 70 m/s and a minimum central pressure of 930 hPa.
Is the Typhoon 2 landfall?
According to records, the Typhoon 2 was not in our coastal landfall.
Where can I view Typhoon 2's live track map?
TyphoonSays (taifengshuo.com) provides track history for typhoon 2, forecast comparison, wind range with IntensityTrend, page address: https://taifengshuo.com/typhoon/195002.
