Typhoon Violet, which formed on April 1, steadily weakened from its peak of 140 mph to directly impact northeastern Luzon as a 115 mph typhoon on the 8th. It dissipated in the South China Sea on April 12 without causing any significant damage.

Typhoon Billie, having developed on July 2, reached its peak of 85 mph on July 5. Billie's intensity fluctuated as it headed northward to Japan, and it became extratropical on the 8th; however, Billie's extratropical remnant continued northeastward, and it brought heavy rain to Honshū and Kyūshū, killing 347 people.

Typhoon (JMA)
Category 3-equivalent typhoon (SSHWS)
Duration	July 2 – July 12
Peak intensity	185 km/h (115 mph) (1-min); 960 hPa (mbar)

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 July 7. After briefly weakening to a tropical storm, Clara re-attained typhoon status, and it peaked in intensity on July 10, reaching winds of 115 mph. Clara weakened to a 90 mph typhoon just before hitting Taiwan on the 11th, and it dissipated over China the next day. Clara's heavy rains caused 69 fatalities and a further 32 people to be reported as missing.

Typhoon (JMA)
Category 1-equivalent typhoon (SSHWS)
Duration	July 27 – August 4
Peak intensity	150 km/h (90 mph) (1-min); 970 hPa (mbar)

On July 24, the remnants of Tropical Storm Eleanor had crossed over the international dateline began to stabilize and re-formed into Typhoon Ellen.

Typhoon (JMA)
Category 5-equivalent super typhoon (SSHWS)
Duration	August 29 – September 17
Peak intensity	285 km/h (180 mph) (1-min); 920 hPa (mbar)

Super Typhoon Opal was a powerful system that peaked in winds of 180 miles per hour (mph), the equivalent of a Category 5 hurricane.

Typhoon (JMA)
Category 4-equivalent typhoon (SSHWS)
Duration	September 14 (Entered Basin) – September 22
Peak intensity	240 km/h (150 mph) (1-min); 930 hPa (mbar)

On September 14, Tropical Storm Sarah, which formed across the International Date Line, entered the Western Pacific. Immediately after the first advisory following Sarah's entrance into the West Pacific, it was upgraded to a minimal typhoon. Typhoon Sarah continued to intensify, and late on September 15, it was upgraded to a Category 4 typhoon. The next day, Sarah reached its peak intensity, attaining 150 mph winds and a 932 millibar (mbar) pressure reading (this was the only pressure measurement retrieved from the typhoon), making the system a super typhoon. Sarah began gradually weakening afterwards, and late on September 21, it became extratropical; it was still an 80 mph Category 1 typhoon at the time.

On September 16, Sarah made landfall on Wake Island at peak intensity, causing widespread damage. This typhoon was the third tropical cyclone since the beginning of observations in 1935 to bring typhoon-force winds to Wake Island, following an unnamed typhoon which struck on October 19, 1940 (Tomita, 1968), which brought 120 knot winds to the island, and Typhoon Olive in 1952, which lashed the island with 150 knot winds. Coincidentally, Olive's attack on the island occurred on September 16, exactly 15 years prior to Sarah's direct hit.[2]

Typhoon (JMA)
Category 5-equivalent super typhoon (SSHWS)
Duration	October 10 – October 20
Peak intensity	295 km/h (185 mph) (1-min); 900 hPa (mbar)

Carla became an intense typhoon while located in the Philippine Sea on October 15.[3] During its weakening stage, the typhoon dumped extreme rainfall around its circulation. Baguio, Philippines recorded 47.86 inches (1,216 mm) of rainfall in a 24‑hour period between October 17 and October 18; however, Carla's precipitation was significantly more extreme in Taiwan, where 108.21 inches (2,749 mm) fell in a 48‑hour period between October 17 and October 19.[4] The worst typhoon to hit the country during the year, it killed 250 people and leaving 30 others missing.

Typhoon (JMA)
Category 3-equivalent typhoon (SSHWS)
Duration	October 16 – October 27
Peak intensity	185 km/h (115 mph) (1-min); 950 hPa (mbar)

Typhoon Dinah struck the southern island of Kyūshū in Japan, killing thirty-seven people and resulting in ten others being reported as missing.[5]

Typhoon (JMA)
Category 5-equivalent super typhoon (SSHWS)
Duration	October 31 – November 8
Peak intensity	260 km/h (160 mph) (1-min); 908 hPa (mbar)

Typhoon Emma was the second super Typhoon to hit the Philippines just 2 weeks after Typhoon Carla. Typhoon Emma left 300 people dead and 60 others missing.

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration uses its own naming scheme for tropical cyclones in their area of responsibility. PAGASA assigns names to tropical depressions that form within their area of responsibility and any tropical cyclone that might move into their area of responsibility. Should the list of names for a given year prove to be insufficient, names are taken from an auxiliary list, the first 6 of which are published each year before the season starts. The names not retired from this list will be used again in the 1971 season. This is the same list used for the 1963 season. The names Uring, Welming, Yayang, Ading and Barang used the first time (and only, in the case of Welming). PAGASA uses its own naming scheme that starts in the Filipino alphabet, with names of Filipino female names ending with "ng" (A, B, K, D, etc.). Names that were not assigned/going to use are marked in gray.

Due to an extreme death toll caused by Typhoon Emma (Welming) in the Philippines, PAGASA later retired the name Welming and was replaced by Warling for the 1971 season.
