[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon ANITA (No.195504, a historical numbering used before 1981) was a 1955 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity: severe typhoon, maximum wind: 45 m/s, minimum central pressure: 974 hPa, no landfall in China, numbered off on 1955-04-30, with 54 track points recorded throughout.
Explanation of the numbering: uniform international numbering in the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by the JMA in Japan, the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1955. The designation 195504 is a historical numbering retained by the CMA. In that year, the JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China’s meteorological authorities may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon, so the numbers 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.
