The 1938 Pacific typhoon season featured 31 storms. Data from this period was extremely sparse, so intensity is not available for these systems. The only agency that tracked these typhoons is the International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship (IBTrACS), which has compiled a database of all known tropical cyclones since 1851.[2]
