NOAH: Typhoon Hagupit / Ruby Storm Surge in Leyte and Eastern Samar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VI0tvCobK2Qhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GEYd... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GEYdB3yapo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYlQiYiecEQ The government's Project NOAH on Wednesday said typhoon "Ruby" (international codename Hagupit) could bring storm surges in several areas in parts of the Visayas including Carigara and Babatngon in Leyte and Eastern Samar. Project NOAH Director Mahar Lagmay said the storm surges could reach as high as 3-4 meters or about the height of a one-storey house. He said the storm surges are lower than the ones experienced during Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan). "During Yolanda, our storm surge prediction was 5-6 meters. May umaabot ng 7 meters pero ang pinakamataas na naitatala ngayon ay 3-4 meters. If you compare to Yolanda, that one had stronger and higher storm surges than this event," he said. Lagmay said that what the DOST lacked last year was the picture of the Philippine coastline, noting that the country has the third largest coastline in the world. He said Project NOAH can now forecast how far inland will the storm surges go after getting detailed maps of the areas. He said the detailed maps for each of the areas are in the Project NOAH website. Information on the heights of the storm surges will be updated every six hours.

The scenario of strengthening Hagupit bringing life-threatening dangers to the Philippines remains a serious concern. Hagupit strengthened into a typhoon early Tuesday night PHT (Tuesday morning EST) with maximum sustained winds of 130 kph (80 mph). In a remarkable period of intensification, Hagupit has become the third typhoon of 2014 to reach sustained winds of 180mph, and may still have time to intensify even more and rival the intensity of Typhoon Haiyan of November 2013. The storm is expected to make landfall somewhere between Leyte and Luzon, and it is still possible that the storm will curve away from the islands completely. However, even if this happens, the storm is likely to pass close enough to cause dangerous conditions in Samar and southeastern Luzon. If the CMC model is to be believed, the storm will stall near the eastern Visayas and move over the islands near where Haiyan made landfall last year, possibly as a Category 5 typhoon. The storm is then likely to move out into the South China Sea and move on to Vietnam. The GFS model is likely to send the storm along the coast of Luzon and curve out into the Philippine sea before weakening and possibly turning back towards land. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fA3r-NSLuVIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cv40i92Hpl0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGDbDJlYD6Qhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sxQyftn7gAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XUMBo_cETk
