Numbering note: International typhoon numbers in the Northwest Pacific have been assigned by JMA, the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1960. The number 196028 is a historical identifier continued by the CMA. JMA, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and China's meteorological authorities may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so the numbers cannot be directly compared.
