Typhoon Toraji hit the Philippines on Monday, marking the fourth storm to affect the country in a month. According to reports, the typhoon made landfall near Dilasag town, approximately 220 kilometers north-east of Manila. Despite the impact, there are no immediate reports of casualties or damage. However, the government evacuated at least 1,400 people from coastal and flood-prone areas, with a total of 2,500 villages ordered to evacuate on Sunday. This development follows the evacuation of residents in the Cagayan province due to a typhoon warning last week.
We're getting hit with strong winds and heavy rain. Some trees are being toppled and power has been cut since yesterday.
Big trees are falling and we heard the roofs of some houses were damaged. The rain is continuing and a river nearby is rising.
