Tropical Storm Trami Leaves 82 Dead in Philippines

News summary

Tropical Storm Trami has left at least 82 people dead in the Philippines, with flooding and landslides causing extensive damage, particularly in Batangas province where 49 fatalities were reported. Thousands remain stranded, with many trapped on rooftops as authorities scramble to deploy rescue efforts. The storm, now moving northwest towards Vietnam, could potentially make a U-turn back to the Philippines due to high-pressure winds in the South China Sea, prompting concerns from President Ferdinand Marcos during an emergency meeting. Meteorologists indicated that while Trami may not make landfall, the ongoing heavy rains could still result in significant damage. The storm has already dumped two months' worth of rainfall in just 24 hours, exacerbating the situation. Marcos has also noted another storm brewing in the Pacific, raising further alarm for the region.
