[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon KIT (No.195305, 1981年前的历史序号) is a 1953 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity Super Typhoon, max wind 80m/s, minimum central pressure 910hPa, 未在我国Landfall, 1953-07-08 was numbered off, 全程记录48 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. )
Numbering note: International uniform numbering in the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by JMA (Japan), the Tokyo Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1953. The 195305 number is the historical number retained by the CMA. The numbers assigned that year by JMA (Japan), the USA Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and China’s meteorological authorities for the same typhoon may differ and cannot be compared directly.
Path. Data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (CMA-STI); wind speed refers to 2-min sustained wind speed. Track points at intermediate times are encrypted based on original operational positioning data, while wind speed and pressure are interpolated using best-track anchor points.

FAQ
What number typhoon was Typhoon KIT in 1953?
Typhoon KIT’s 195305 is the historical number retained by the CMA, meaning the fifth numbered typhoon of 1953. Its international name was KIT. International uniform numbering in the Northwest Pacific did not begin until 1981. Before then, agencies used their own numbering systems, so the numbers assigned by JMA (Japan), the USA Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and China’s meteorological authorities for the same typhoon may differ and cannot be compared directly.
Where does the track data for Typhoon KIT come from?
Path. Data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (CMA-STI); wind speed refers to 2-min sustained wind speed. Track points at intermediate times are encrypted based on original operational positioning data, while wind speed and pressure are interpolated using best-track anchor points.
What was the strongest intensity reached by Typhoon KIT?
Typhoon KIT peak intensity is Super Typhoon, max wind 80m/s, minimum central pressure 910 hPa.
Did Typhoon KIT make landfall?
According to the records, Typhoon KIT did not make landfall on China's coast.
Where can I view typhoon KIT's live track map?
