[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon Amy (No.197402, its historical number before 1981) was a 1974 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Its peak intensity was severe tropical storm, with maximum winds of 30 m/s and a minimum central pressure of 988 hPa. It did not make landfall in China. It was no longer numbered on 1974-03-21, with 30 track points recorded throughout its lifetime.
Numbering note: The internationally unified numbering system for the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by JMA (Japan), the RSMC Tokyo, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1974. The designation 197402 is the historical number retained by the CMA. JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and China’s meteorological agencies may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so these numbers cannot be directly compared.
