Before then, agencies including the JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China's meteorological authorities each used their own numbering, so the numbers assigned to the same typhoon may differ and cannot be directly compared.
Where does Typhoon Carla's track data come from?
Path. Data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (CMA-STI); wind speed refers to 2-min sustained wind speed. Track points at intermediate times are encrypted based on original operational positioning data, while wind speed and pressure are interpolated using best-track anchor points.
What is the highest level of Typhoon Carla?
Typhoon Carla peak intensity is Severe Typhoon, max wind 50m/s, minimum central pressure 963 hPa.
