[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon Georgia (No.197618, a historical numbering used before 1981) was a 1976 Northwest Pacific typhoon. It peaked as a severe tropical storm, with maximum winds of 25 m/s and a minimum central pressure of 990 hPa. It did not make landfall in China. Its numbering ended on 1976-09-16, with 37 track points recorded throughout its lifetime.
Numbering explanation: International numbering in the Northwest Pacific has been assigned by the JMA, the regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1976. The 197618 is the historical number used by the CMA. The JMA, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and China's meteorological authorities may have assigned different numbers to the same typhoon that year, so these numbers cannot be directly compared.
Track data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (CMA-STI); wind speeds are 2-minute sustained wind speeds.
