The storm caused damage there costing US$457&nbsp;million, and one death.  Strong gusts up to 248&nbsp;km\/h (154&nbsp;mph) left nearly the entire island without power, disrupting the water system for several days and preventing the island-based Joint Typhoon Warning Center from issuing advisories for 11&nbsp;days. The storm damaged or destroyed 2,158&nbsp;houses, leaving 3,000&nbsp;people homeless. The next day Omar became a super typhoon with sustained winds of 240&nbsp;km\/h (150&nbsp;mph). Passing well  north of the Philippines, it killed 11&nbsp;people. It weakened significantly before striking eastern Taiwan on September&nbsp;4; scattered flooding caused three deaths, along with damage worth $65&nbsp;million, mostly to agriculture. The storm proceeded into eastern China the next day and dissipated on September&nbsp;9.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Wikipedia article of the day for December 4, 2017 is Typhoon Omar.
