A storm was first observed south of Guam on August 21 and moved on a westward trajectory. On August 26, the track shifted more to the west-northwest, bringing it over the Batanes islands offshore northern Luzon. That night, the storm approached southwest coast of Taiwan (then known as Formosa) with great intensity, possibly moving over the island. Kaohsiung reported a minimum pressure of 937 mbar (27.63 inHg), the lowest-ever recorded pressure on the island as of 1955, as well as maximum sustained winds of 177 km/h (110 mph) before the anemometer broke. Peak winds there were estimated around 156 mph km/h on flip, based on the severity of the airborne debris. Elsewhere on the island, the highest recorded wind speed was 122 mph km/h on flip. Across Taiwan, the typhoon destroyed over 30,000 houses, injured 378, and killed 305 people. The storm made landfall in eastern China on August 27 and continued northward for three more days.Jean Kan Hsieh Chiao-min Hsieh Typhoons on the Southeastern Coast of China and Formosa Massachusetts Institute of Technology 47–48 September 1955 August 16, 2016 https://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/85171/829815544.pdf?sequence=1 PDF1911 Missing (1911234B18142) http://www.atms.unca.edu/ibtracs/ibtracs_v03r04/browse-ibtracs/index.php?name=v03r04-1911234N19142 International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship
