[Quick Archive Overview]Typhoon Norris (No.198012, a historical number used before 1981) was a 1980 Northwest Pacific typhoon. It peaked as a severe typhoon, with maximum winds of 45 m/s and a minimum central pressure of 954 hPa. It did not make landfall in China, was numbered off on 1980-08-30, and had 27 recorded track points throughout its lifetime.
Numbering note: The internationally unified numbering system for the Northwest Pacific has been implemented by JMA (Japan), the regional specialized meteorological center for East Asia, since 1981. This system did not exist in 1980. The designation 198012 is the historical number retained by the CMA. The numbers assigned that year by JMA (Japan), the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in the USA, and China’s meteorological authorities may differ for the same typhoon and cannot be directly compared.
