It underwent eyewall replacement cycles from August 25 through August 27, and tracked across Taiwan/Taipei with maximum sustained winds of 95 knots, then through the Formosa Strait into China as a minimal typhoon. On August 30, Amber completely absorbed Cass, in inland China, before degenerating into a remnant low, and dissipating as well, later on that day. Damages from Typhoon Amber amounted to $52 million. Throughout much of its duration, Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration tracked the storm, and named it Miling. Typhoon Bing As a tropical storm, Bing tracked through the Mariana Islands and produced torrential rains. Following previous heavy rains earlier in the month, a maximum of at Andersen Air Force Base on Guam and on Tiyan. A landslide in Santa Rita caused significant structural damage. By September 1, Bing bypassed the Bonin Islands. Sustained winds reached and gusts peaked at . The extratropical remnants of Bing brought heavy rain to the Aleutian Islands between September 6 and 7. Winds also gusted in excess of in some areas. Tropical Storm Cass On August 25, a low-pressure area developed in the South China Sea, west of the Philippines, associated with the dissipating convection of Tropical Storm Zita. The low-pressure area then started to strengthen, and slowly became a Tropical Depression on August 28. The system failed to strengthen for a while, due to a much stronger system just east of Cass, Typhoon Amber. However, Typhoon Amber soon started to move north, just a little farther from Cass, but was just enough for Cass to strengthen into a Tropical Storm. As the nearby Typhoon Amber started to make landfall over Taiwan, a strong southern inflow from Typhoon Amber pulled Cass northwards, in an effect known as the Fujiwhara effect. As Typhoon Amber made landfall, and moved inland over eastern China, Cass was pulled very close to Typhoon Amber, while Cass was maintaining Tropical Storm strength. This severely weakened the storm, as it made landfall on August 30. Cass was then absorbed by Typhoon Amber, shortly afterwards, in inland China. Typhoon Oliwa On September 2, the monsoon formed into Tropical Depression Two-C in the Central Pacific. It headed slowly westward, becoming a tropical storm on September 3. Later that day, Oliwa crossed the International Date Line, and continued to slowly strengthen to become a typhoon on September 8. Oliwa rapidly strengthened on September 9 to reach a peak of
