Its peak intensity was typhoon, with maximum winds of 40 m/s and a minimum central pressure of 970 hPa. It did not make landfall in China and was numbered off on 1954-08-22, with 45 track points recorded throughout its lifetime.
Code explanation: The international uniform code for the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by JMA (Japan), the E-region specialized meteorological center, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1954. 195409 is the historical number continued by the CMA. JMA (Japan), the joint Typhoon Warning Center of the USA, and China’s meteorological agencies may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so they cannot be directly compared.
Track data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (CMA-STI); wind speeds are 2-minute sustained wind speeds.
