Typhoon Louise–Marge, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Ining–Liling, was a powerful tropical cyclone that impacted Palau and the Philippines in November 1964. It was one of the most destructive typhoons documented in the central Philippines. Tracking data from meteorological agencies disagree whether the storm was a single tropical cyclone or two distinct tropical cyclones that occurred in quick succession, named separately by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) as Louise and Marge (and by the Philippine Weather Bureau as Ining and Liling). Louise–Marge's peak intensity and first landfall on the Philippines were associated with the Louise portion of the storm's history, while the Marge portion was weaker and shorter lived.

  • Typhoon Louise–Marge, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Ining–Liling, was a powerful tropical cyclone that impacted Palau and the Philippines in November 1964. It was one of the most destructive typhoons documented in the central Philippines. Tracking data from meteorological agencies disagree whether the storm was a single tropical cyclone or two distinct tropical cyclones that occurred in quick succession, named separately by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) as Louise and Marge (and by the Philippine Weather Bureau as Ining and Liling). Louise–Marge's peak intensity and first landfall on the Philippines were associated with the Louise portion of the storm's history, while the Marge portion was weaker and shorter lived. The typhoon may have formed as early as November 14 in the vicinity of Yap State. It quickly strengthened and became a typhoon by November 16. Later that day, the storm passed south of Palau near Anguar. Intensification continued, and Louise–Marge's winds later reached Category 5 intensity on the Saffir–Simpson scale at 7.3°N, closer to the equator than any other storm of such strength in the Northern Hemisphere on record. The storm's one-minute sustained winds topped out at 305 km/h (190 mph) before making landfall on Surigao del Sur on November 18. Agencies that consider Louise and Marge to be the same storm indicate that the typhoon weakened over the Philippines and tracked northwest before making a counterclockwise arc across Luzon and the eastern South China Sea. Agencies that consider them separate systems believe Louise dissipated after crossing the Philippines, with a separate Marge concurrently developing east of Luzon and taking the arced path. Dissipation of the storm, either as Louise–Marge or as Marge, occurred by November 26. Widespread devastation occurred in Angaur and Peleliu, two southern islands in Palau. In Peleliu, 97 percent of structures were destroyed. There was one death and four injuries caused by the typhoon in Palau, with total property and crop damage amounting to US$50,000–US$100,000. Louise–Marge moved across 13 Philippine provinces, with the most severe damage occurring in Surigao del Norte where the damage amounted to around US$12.5 million. Enumerations of the death toll ranged between 576 and 631, with around 300,000 people left homeless. Property damage was high throughout the affected regions, with Surigao City suffering the brunt of the typhoon. Philippine President Diosdado Macapagal stated that he had never "seen a more comprehensive devastation of any one province" following an aerial survey of Surigao del Norte. (en)
