[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon No. 3 (No. 195003, the historical numbering system used before 1981) was a 1950 Northwest Pacific typhoon. It peaked as a severe tropical storm, with maximum winds of 25 m/s and a minimum central pressure of 992 hPa. It did not make landfall in China. Its numbering was discontinued on June 10, 1950, and 20 track points were recorded throughout its lifetime.
Code note: The internationally standardized codes for the Northwest Pacific have been assigned since 1981 by JMA (Japan), the regional specialized meteorological center in Tokyo. This system did not exist in 1950, and 195003 is the historical number retained by the CMA. JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the USA, and China’s meteorological authorities may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so they cannot be directly compared.
