Depression Winnie was a catastrophic tropical cyclone that killed nearly
1,600 people after triggering widespread flooding in the Philippines.
Although a weak tropical cyclone, Tropical Depression Winnie brought
torrential rainfall to much of the Visayas and Luzon. Initial estimates
stated that at least 300 people were killed by the storm. However, over
time, it was discovered that at least 842 people perished and 751 others
were missing, a total of 1,593 people. Damage from the depression was
estimated at 678.7 million Philippine pesos ($14.6 million USD). Not
long after Winnie devastated the central Philippines, the country was
struck by another, more powerful tropical cyclone. Typhoon Nanmadol
worsened the situation caused by Winnie and killed more than 1,000
people. |
