[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon Tess (No.196401, the historical number used before 1981) was a 1964 Northwest Pacific typhoon; peak intensity severe typhoon, max wind 50m/s, minimum central pressure 966hPa, did not make landfall in China, was numbered off on 1964-05-27, and 58 track points were recorded throughout.
Numbering notes: the internationally unified numbering for the Northwest Pacific is assigned by JMA (Japan), the regional specialized meteorological centre for East Asia, starting from 1981. That system did not exist in 1964; 196401 is the historical number retained by CMA, and JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (USA) and China's meteorological authorities may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so the numbers cannot be compared directly.
Track data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (CMA-STI); wind speeds are 2-minute sustained wind speeds.
