It quickly intensified while moving westward into a small hurricane, and it crossed over southeastern <a href="/wiki/Cuba" title="Cuba">Cuba</a> on September 13.

In the eastern Cuban city of <a href="/wiki/Baracoa" title="Baracoa">Baracoa</a>, Hilda severely damaged the oldest church in the country.

Before the hurricane moved ashore, there was residual flooding in Tampico from earlier <a href="/wiki/1955_Atlantic_hurricane_season#Hurricane_Gladys" title="1955 Atlantic hurricane season">Hurricane Gladys</a>. Hilda struck the city early on September 19, with gusts estimated at 150 mph (240 km/h). It dropped heavy rainfall that flooded 90% of Tampico, while its strong winds damaged half of the homes, leaving 15,000 homeless. The storm killed 300 people and caused over $120 million (1955 <a href="/wiki/United_States_dollar" title="United States dollar">USD</a>) in Mexico. Ongoing flooding caused an outbreak of <a href="/wiki/Dysentery" title="Dysentery">dysentery</a>, and about 10 days after Hilda struck, <a href="/wiki/Hurricane_Janet" title="Hurricane Janet">Hurricane Janet</a> struck the same region and caused further flooding and damage.
