Pepito may reach super typhoon strength before landfall | ABS CBN News
Weather update (November 15, 11AM): Pepito intensified into a typhoon on Friday morning, as it threatened to ravage areas still reeling from a string of weather disasters.
PAGASA said Pepito was 620 kilometers east of Hinatuan, Surigao del Sur at 10 a.m., packing maximum sustained winds of 130 kilometers per hour and up to 160 kph gusts.
It “will continue to rapidly intensify today through tomorrow and may reach super typhoon category prior to its landfall tomorrow evening or on Sunday early morning,” the state weather bureau warned.
It said Pepito was likely to make landfall in Catanduanes. But considering uncertainty, PAGASA said it was not discounting possible landfall in Northern Samar; the eastern coast of Camarines Sur, Albay, or Sorsogon; or northern Quezon or Aurora.
