Typhoon Kalmaegi has become the deadliest storm to hit the Philippines this year, killing at least 142 people and leaving 127 missing. The storm brought catastrophic floods across central provinces, with Cebu suffering the worst damage. Over half a million people have been displaced, and President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has declared a national calamity, allowing emergency funds to be released. Meteorologists say rainfall was 1.5 times higher than the November average. The typhoon has now moved into the South China Sea and is strengthening again as Vietnam and Thailand brace for impact, with evacuations and severe weather warnings issued.
