editOn November 1, a depression formed between Palau and Mindanao. The depression moved northwest for the next two days and curved west later. The depression made landfall over Visayas and Palawan, curving west-northwest and dissipating shortly after on November 6.[2] On November 10, a typhoon formed east of the Caroline Islands. The typhoon moved rapidly on a west-northwest course, trailing to the Philippines in four days. The typhoon later curved to a northwest course, crossing and making landfall over Samar, Legazpi, Albay, Naga, Camarines Sur, Atimonan, and later making landfall over Metro Manila. Then the typhoon crossed the South China Sea on November 16. The storm then went west over the Balintang Channel and dissipated on November 19 over the Ryukyu Islands.[2]
