Philippines prepares for Typhoon Man-yi as Usagi weakens

The Philippines is preparing for Typhoon Man-yi, which is expected to hit the capital region. President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has ordered authorities to stock up on supplies and warned residents of potential storm surges and heavy rain starting Sunday. Man-yi, with winds up to 93.2 mph, is forecast to make landfall in Catanduanes this weekend. The National Capital Region is particularly at risk of flooding. Mandatory evacuations for vulnerable coastal residents will begin today. Meanwhile, Typhoon Usagi has weakened after impacting northern towns, causing damage but no reported casualties. Authorities are assessing the damage from Usagi, while the country faces multiple storms this month, a rare occurrence since 1951.
