It did not make landfall in China, ceased being numbered on July 26, 1962, and has a complete track of 40 points.
Numbering note: International numbering in the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by the JMA in Japan, the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center in Tokyo, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1962. The 196205 designation is a historical number retained by the CMA, while the JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and Chinese meteorological authorities may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so the numbers cannot be compared directly.
