@gobak20: On this day, November 14, 2024: Super Typhoon Ofel (Usagi) slammed into Baggao, Cagayan, prompting PAGASA to raise its highest alert—Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal No. 5. Undergoing rapid intensification with a tight pinhole eye just before landfall, Ofel peaked with 10-minute sustained winds of 185 km/h (and 240 km/h 1-minute winds per JTWC). As the third consecutive storm in under two weeks following Marce and Nika, it brought compounding floods, severe winds, and power outages to an already saturated Northern Luzon. #usagi #ofelph #bagyongofel #supertyphoon #cagayan
