This system did not exist in 1957. 195716 is the historical number continued by the CMA. JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (USA), and Chinese meteorological authorities may have used different numbers for the same typhoon that year, 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.
