Typhoon Rita was the most damaging typhoon to affect northern Japan since 1965.
 A tropical depression developed on August 9, 1975 over the South China Sea.
 The depression initially meandered offshore Taiwan, but after turning west, it was upgraded into a tropical storm on August 19, only to turn back to the east.
 While growing considerably in size, Rita strengthened into a typhoon during the afternoon hours of the August 21.
 Rita then accelerated to the north-northeast in response to a shortwave trough.
 Midday on August 22, the typhoon reached its peak intensity, with winds of 145 km/h (90 mph) and a minimum barometric pressure of 965 mbar (28.5 inHg).
 That evening, the typhoon weakened slightly before making landfall 55 km (35 mi) west of Osaka, with winds of 130 km/h (80 mph).
 Quickly crossing central and northern Honshu, Rita veered slightly northward before weakening into a tropical storm early on August 23.
 On the next day, Rita merged with a cold front before transiting into an extratropical cyclone.
