橫瀾島
Ruby was the first of two typhoons in 1964 for which the Royal Observatory in Hong Kong raised tropical cyclone signal no. 10; this warning was in effect for nearly four hours. The fastest wind gust from Ruby in Hong Kong was clocked at 268 km/h (166 mph) at Tate's Cairn. A gust of 230 km/h (143 mph) on Waglan Island was the fastest observed in the island's history. The strong winds and heavy rain caused widespread damage in Hong Kong, destroying thousands of homes and damaging thousands of others. Fifty thousand refugees from the People's Republic of China lost their shelters. Numerous ships sank or ran aground at the Hong Kong Harbor. There were 38 fatalities and 300 injuries in the Crown colony. A record gust of 211 km/h (131 mph) was measured in Taipa, Macau. There, more than 20 people were killed and 100 others were injured. Widespreading flooding and damage occurred in Guangdong Province, leading to the deaths of over 700 people; some 300 people died when a school dormitory collapsed.
