Typhoon Champi forced the shutdown of TSMC's Hsinchu fabs and Taiwan's financial markets on October 23, with gusts of 191 km/h and potential rainfall of 900 mm, though it is expected to pass northeast of the island without direct landfall. All 262 domestic and over 350 international flights were canceled, and there are currently no reports of production disruption or physical damage to TSMC's fabrication plants.
