CMA Best Track final data
| Max Wind | The minimum air pressure. |
| CMA track data | 61 m/s | 960 hPa |
| Final best-track value | 60 m/s | 961 hPa |
During a Typhoon's active period, live published values are operational positioning data. After the Typhoon ends, the CMA combines more complete observational data to produce the best-track dataset, which is generally used for academic research and historical rankings. Data sources: CMA Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset (compiled using IBTrACS v04r01); wind speeds are converted from knots to m/s and rounded.
