FAQ
Typhoon Kathy was the 1976 Typhoon.
Kathy’s 197601 identifier is the historical number retained by the CMA, meaning the first numbered typhoon of 1976, with the international name KATHY. The unified international numbering system for the Northwest Pacific did not begin until 1981. Before then, each agency used its own numbering system, so identifiers assigned by the JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China’s meteorological agencies to the same typhoon may differ and cannot be compared directly.
Where does the track data for Typhoon Kathy come from?
