Numbering note: International numbering for Northwest Pacific typhoons has been assigned by the JMA, the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center in Tokyo, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1950, and 195040 is the historical number used by the CMA. The JMA, Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and Chinese meteorological authorities may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so their identifiers cannot be directly compared.
