MANILA, Philippines Typhoon Fung-wong strengthened into a super typhoon on Sunday as it moved closer to the Philippines, threatening to make landfall late at night.
The massive storm, spanning almost the entire country, has already brought heavy rain and strong winds to Catanduanes, the island expected to take a direct hit. Storm surges have flooded coastal streets, while authorities have raised the highest alert level and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate.
Flights have been canceled and schools suspended as the country braces for one of the strongest typhoons of the year.
