Numbering explanation: International cyclone identifiers for the Northwest Pacific have been assigned by the JMA, the Tokyo regional specialized meteorological center, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1951. The identifier 195126 is a historical number retained by the CMA. The JMA, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and China’s meteorological authorities may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so they 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.
