#Babuyan
Cat-5 Super #Typhoon #RAGASA raking the Babuyan Islands of the #Philippines with winds of 145 knots. Babuyan Island is squarely in the eye; the larger & more populated Calayan Island is in the inner eyewall—no doubt seeing extreme winds—& about to enter the lull. Next stop for me: China.

Super Typhoon #Ragasa / #NandoPH is battering the islands within the Luzon Strait between Taiwan and the Philippines. The eye has passed directly over Babuyan Island and Calayan Island with Category 5 winds over 260 km/h (160 mph).

Typhoon #Ragasa (a.k.a. #NandoPH) is hastily strengthening in the Philippine Sea.

It’s expected to become a Super Typhoon tomorrow, reaching winds of 250 km/h (155 mph) while tracking near the Babuyan Islands of the northern Philippines.

#Typhoon #RAGASA is gorgeous—& difficult to chase. My target was Babuyan Islands (orange). There's no airport, but I had a plan—& then the plan fell through. Plan B: Hunt it in China (pink), where it could be a big impact. My possible targets: Hong Kong, Macau, Zhanjiang, & Leizhou. No decision yet.

And even setting that aside, little groups of pissed off Marines with missiles running around Palawan or Babuyan Islands or slightly larger groups of angry soldiers with larger missiles in n. Luzon isn't the main action, it's a fixing and/or flanking one, that was always the intent w/RxR concepts

The Philippines’ Babuyan Islands are just hours away from a catastrophic strike by Category 5 Super Typhoon Ragasa, packing sustained winds of 165 mph and gusts up to 200 mph.

The remote islands are home to about 20,000 people, many of whom live in poverty.

Super Typhoon #Ragasa roaring through Babuyan Islands of Philippines.

The Luzon Montane Mabouya (Eutropis bontocensis) lives in northern Luzon & the Babuyan and Batanes islands in the Philippines. It is the perfect combination of stripey & shiny.

Calayan (larger) Isl. is only a max of 14 mi. wide.

#Ragasa is very much in the process of becoming a storm to remember for decades, perhaps even centuries (if we're still around that long!). Up to a C5 super typhoon with MSP of AT LEAST 910 and winds of AT LEAST 167 mph
Batanes and Babuyan Islands have less than 12 hours to prepare!
