2nd Typhoon In 1 Week Hits Phillipine Island Of Luzon, Forcing Suspension Of Ongoing Rescue Operations
Typhoon Fung-Wong, locally known as Uwan, is the second in a week to affect the Philippines after making landfall on Sunday evening. The weather system prompted warnings for heavy rainfall and life-threatening storm surges across much of the country, with sustained winds of 115mph (185km/h) and gusts of about 140mph recorded on Sunday by the national meteorological agency.
By the time Fung-Wong moves past the Philippines early this week, more than 200mm of rainfall is expected to have fallen on Luzon, the country’s most populous island.
This follows Typhoon Kalmaegi, which struck less than a week ago and left at least 224 people dead in the Philippines. The arrival of Typhoon Fung-Wong has forced authorities to suspend rescue operations for more than 100 missing people.
After crossing Luzon, Fung-Wong is expected to move north-westwards into the South China Sea by Tuesday, before veering north towards Taiwan. Although there is some variability in its track, Taiwan is likely to face heavy rain, strong winds and flooding midweek.
