Higher wind warnings will be issued as Uwan draws closer to land.
At 10 p.m. Friday, Uwan was located 1,045 km east of Eastern Visayas, now with maximum winds of 120 kph and gusts up to 150 kph. It is moving west northwestward at 20 kph.
It may rapidly intensify up to super typhoon strength by late Saturday or early Sunday.
Signal no. 5 will be the highest wind warning to be raised.
Uwan may make landfall over southern Isabela or northern Aurora at or near peak intensity late Sunday or early Monday.
It will then cross Northern Luzon and emerge over the West Philippine Sea in the afternoon.
The mountainous terrain of Luzon will significantly weaken Uwan, but it will remain a typhoon during its crossing.
Uwan will bring significant rainfall in Luzon and Visayas during its passage.
Up to torrential rains may be expected over most of Bicol Saturday evening to Sunday evening and over Northern and Central Luzon Sunday evening to Monday evening.
Widespread and serious flooding and landslides are expected in these areas.
The track and intensity forecast will still change so the public is advised to continuously monitor updates on the potential super typhoon. | via Ariel Rojas, ABS-CBN News
