Целые кварталы разрушены до основания: тайфун «Тино» опустошает Филиппины

Reviews of weather events, natural disasters, astronomical phenomena and wildlife around the world Typhoon Tino (international name Kalmaegi) struck the Visayas and Mindanao regions, causing heavy rainfall, flooding, and infrastructure destruction. Winds at the epicenter reached 150 km/h (93 mph), with gusts up to 205 km/h (125 mph). At landfall, the provinces of Eastern Samar, Southern Leyte, and the Dinagat Islands were hit hardest. The worst damage occurred in Talisay City, where torrents of muddy water cascaded down from hillsides onto the city. Videos showed people sheltering on rooftops while cars and shipping containers were swept through the streets. Residential areas of Cebu were severely damaged: the advancing torrents washed away numerous small buildings, leaving behind a thick layer of mud. Rescuers used boats to free people trapped in their homes. Local authorities reported flooded homes, landslides, and widespread power outages. In some areas, water levels rose more than 2 meters in minutes. The death toll from Typhoon Kalmaegi reached 52 as of the morning of Wednesday, November 5. The official death toll includes six crew members of a military helicopter that crashed on the island of Mindanao, south of Cebu, after being deployed to provide aid. More than 150,000 residents were evacuated from coastal areas alone. In total, more than 400,000 people were displaced by the disaster, according to the national disaster management agency. In the central islands, sea routes have been canceled, schools and businesses have been closed, and traffic has been restricted. Typhoon Tino has weakened slightly since making landfall in the Philippines, but continues to pack winds of over 130 km/h (80 mph). At this moment, it has moved through the Visayas region and is located over the South China Sea. The typhoon is forecast to gain strength again in open water and make landfall on the coast of Vietnam with speeds of 175 km/h (108 mph), which has already been hit hard by previous cyclones. The Philippines is hit by an average of 20 storms or typhoons annually. Typhoon Tino arrived a month after two consecutive typhoons killed more than a dozen people and damaged infrastructure and crops. Super Typhoon Ragasa, known locally as Nando, struck in late September, followed shortly by Typhoon Bualoy, known locally as Opong.
