MANILA, November 10 (Xinhua) — Super Typhoon Fung Wong made landfall in Aurora Province, eastern Luzon, on Sunday evening, the National Meteorological Bureau reported.
The Category 5 typhoon hit Dinalungan Municipality at around 9:10 p.m. local time (1:10 p.m. GMT) on Sunday, the department said.
After making landfall, Fung Wong will move through the mountainous terrain of northern Luzon and enter Lingayen Gulf or the coastal waters of Pangasinan or La Union provinces by Monday morning.
Interaction with the rugged terrain of Luzon will significantly weaken the elements, but its strength will remain as it crosses land, the weather bureau reported.
According to local authorities, the super typhoon had already claimed at least two lives before making landfall.
Fung Wong became the 21st tropical cyclone to hit the Philippines this year, exceeding the country's annual average of 20 typhoons. –0–
