SUPER TYPHOON HAGUPIT (RUBY) UPDATE NUMBER 008
Issued at: 7:00 AM PhT (23:00 GMT) Friday 05 December 2014
Next Update: Friday Afternoon, 05 December 2014

Extremely Catastrophic Super Typhoon HAGUPIT (RUBY) continues to gradually weaken as it maintains its west-northwest track across the Philippine Sea...remains a serious threat to Bicol Region and Eastern Visayas. The potential landfall area of this cyclone is along the southern part of Eastern Samar, between 8 PM - 12 MN, Dec 06 (Saturday).

This super typhoon will enhance the Northeast Monsoon (Hanging Amihan) - bringing mostly cloudy and windy conditions and cooler temperatures across Northern and Central Luzon beginning Friday...becoming more frequent with possible occasional slight to moderate rains along eastern sections of Cagayan, Isabela, Aurora, and Northern Quezon. The threat of flash floods and landslides are likely in hazard-prone areas especially along river banks and mountain slopes of the affected areas. Residents are advised to take necessary precautions.

Residents and visitors along Southern Luzon, Visayas and Northeastern Mindanao should closely monitor the development of Hagupit (Ruby).

Information based on data collected by WeatherPhilippines Foundation, Inc. shall not be taken as official data. Weather information broadcasted and distributed by PAGASA remains as official data. WeatherPhilippines shall not be responsible for the private use and reliance of its weather information.

Extreme damage is likely on this type of storm surge. Danger from Rip Currents or Rip Tides can be expected along the beach-front areas of Surigao del Norte, Rest of Visayas, Ragay Gulf, Visayan Sea and Eastern Luzon.

2-DAY FORECAST OUTLOOK*

STY Hagupit (Ruby) is expected to move westward throughout the outlook period. On the forecast track, STY Hagupit (Ruby) will be traversing the west-central part of the Philippine Sea and moving closer to the coast of Eastern Samar by Saturday...crossing the southern part of Samar Island through Sunday early morning.

STY Hagupit (Ruby) is expected to continue losing strength throughout the outlook period as it interacts with the cool dry air of the Northeast Monsoon. Advance Intensity Forecast (AIF) shows its 10-minute maximum sustained winds decreasing to 215 kph by Sunday early morning.

The following is the 3-day forecast outlook summary for this system:

SATURDAY EARLY MORNING: Maintains its weakening phase while moving slowly across the Philippine Sea...about 250 km east of Borongan City, Eastern Samar [5AM DEC 06: 11.7N 127.7E @ 220kph].
SUNDAY EARLY MORNING: Downgraded into a Typhoon after making landfall along the southern coast of Eastern Samar...about 35 km west of Borongan City, Eastern Samar [5AM DEC 07: 11.6N 125.1E @ 215kph].
MONDAY EARLY MORNING: Continues to weaken as it turns to west-northwest...traversing along the southern edge of Masbate towards Romblon...about 25 km east-southeast of Romblon [5AM DEC 08: 12.5N 122.5E @ 195kph].

*Please be reminded that the Forecast Outlook changes every 6 hours, and the Day 2 and 3 Forecast Track has an average error of 100 and 250 km respectively...while the wind speed forecast error, averages 35 kph per day. Therefore, a turn to the left or right of its future track and changes in its wind speed must be anticipated from time to time.

Stay safe everyone

Looks like the typhoon is still headed for Samar and fortunately Cebu City will be spared.  Still hoping it will take a turn to the North and miss everything, but that's not likely.  Winds just started picking up here in Ormoc but the preventive blackout hasn't been enacted just yet.  Should be shutting down soon.  Gonna be a long day and night, as this storm is moving so slowly.  Stay safe, everyone.

Manila may be in the path and unfortunately, due to the overpopulation of "informal settlers" living on riverbanks and poor drainage throughout, even moderate rainfall floods many areas. Not much has changed for the better in the 5 years since Ondoy.

Strange, the JWTC track seems to go north more:

While this one stays south.  I hope it stays south.  Waiting for the 11 AM update.
