The Philippines is still grappling with the aftermath of Typhoon Tino, internationally known as Kalmaegi, and now another powerful tropical cyclone is on the horizon. The approaching storm, Fung-Wong (locally called Uwan), is projected to intensify into a Category 5 cyclone and is expected to make landfall in Luzon, the country's northern region, on Sunday, 9 November 2025.
The menacing storm continues to build strength as it nears the Philippine archipelago, prompting authorities to issue urgent warnings. Forecasts show its eye passing near Catanduanes early Sunday morning before making landfall in Isabela or northern Aurora by Sunday evening or early Monday.
