[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon Violet (No.197610, the historical numbering used before 1981) was a 1976 Northwest Pacific typhoon. Its peak intensity was typhoon status, with maximum winds of 35 m/s and a minimum central pressure of 970 hPa. It did not make landfall in China, was numbered off on July 27, 1976, and has 28 recorded track points throughout its lifetime.
Numbering note: The international numbering system for the Northwest Pacific has been used by the JMA in Japan, the designated regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1976. The number 197610 is the historical number continued by the CMA. The JMA in Japan, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the United States, and China’s meteorological agencies may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so these numbers cannot be directly compared.
