From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1967 Pacific typhoon season has no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1967, but most tropical cyclones tend to form in the northwestern Pacific Ocean between June and December. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.
The scope of this article is limited to the Pacific Ocean, north of the equator and west of the international date line. Storms that form east of the date line and north of the equator are called hurricanes; see 1967 Pacific hurricane season. Tropical Storms formed in the entire west pacific basin were assigned a name by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center. Tropical depressions in this basin have the "W" suffix added to their number. Tropical depressions that enter or form in the Philippine area of responsibility are assigned a name by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration or PAGASA. This can often result in the same storm having two names.
[edit] Storms
41 tropical depressions formed this year in the Western Pacific, of which 35 became tropical storms. 20 storms reached typhoon intensity, of which 4 reached super typhoon strength.

[edit] Typhoon Billie
Typhoon Billie, having developed on July 2, reached her peak of 85 mph on the 5th. Its intensity fluctuated as it headed northward to Japan, and became extratropical on the 8th. Its extratropical remnant continued northeastward, and brought heavy rain to Honshū and Kyūshū, killing 347 people.
[edit] Typhoon Clara
A cold core low developed tropical characteristics and became Tropical Depression 8W on July 6. It tracked westward, becoming a tropical storm later that day and a typhoon on the 7th. After briefly weakening to a tropical storm, Clara re-attained typhoon status, and peaked at 115 mph on the 10th. Clara weakened to a 90 mph typhoon just before hitting Taiwan on the 11th, and dissipated over China the next day. Carla's heavy rains caused 69 fatalities (with 32 missing).
