Incoming typhoon

I have heard of an incoming typhoon hitting the Philippines as from 5-6 November. Anyone knows more?

DOWN CHINSTAYS!

 

The 'Windy' website gives a good picture of what's going on. Yesterday there looked like a developing tropical depression off to the east of Cebu, but that's unlikely to affect us too much here.

 

Inquirer.Net:
Tino (international name: Kalmaegi) strengthened into a severe tropical storm on Sunday afternoon, the state weather bureau said.

I have also read elsewhere that it is not yet known the exact route this will take and there is uncertainty if it hits the already suffering North of Cebu or Central Cebu; if the latter then surely that brings it very close to Dumaguete.

More information will come as the route and intensity becomes more defined but possibly Tuesday/Wednesday in this area could be the time to superglue the wigs on.

Shows a pretty good animation of the expected path with wind velocities and rainfall etc.

 

At 11 am Monday 3rd November:

Tino expected to make landfall in Samar/Leyte region tonight or early Tuesday and our region probably daylight hours on Tuesday.

Pagasa does not rule out the possibility of Tino developing even further into a super typhoon “based on alternate scenarios and climatological data.”
