Data sources: NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information IBTrACS v04r01 (Knapp et al., 2010), code 1998336S13120 / SH051999. There is no official Chinese name for this system, so the original English name is used. Intensity is classified by the local agency in the relevant sea area, based on the WMO conversion of 1-minute sustained wind, for reference only. Data notes · Incorrect translation?
