Typhoon Noru, known in the Philippines as Super Typhoon Karding, is a powerful tropical cyclone in the Western Pacific Ocean currently threatening Luzon. The sixteenth named storm and eighth typhoon of the 2022 Pacific typhoon season, Noru originated from a disturbance initially designated by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) as Invest 95W in the Pacific Ocean, near the eastern border of PAGASA's Philippine Area of Responsibility; a bulletin was later issued, noting that the system could have normal intensification due to low wind shear and warmer water. Hours later, the JTWC upgraded the system into a tropical depression, designating it as Tropical Depression 18W. PAGASA then followed suit, assigning the name Karding to the developing tropical cyclone.

On 21 September, a disturbance developed into tropical depression east of the Philippines, according to the Japan Meteorological Agency.[1] The Joint Typhoon Warning Center designated this disturbance as Invest 95W and issued a bulletin noting that the low-pressure system could develop into a tropical cyclone due to low wind shear and warm water.[2] Hours later, the JTWC upgraded the system into a tropical depression, designating it as 18W.[3] the PAGASA then followed suit at 00:00 UTC on 22 September, and the tropical depression was assigned the name Karding.[4] A few hours later, the system reached tropical storm strength, and the JMA designated it as Noru.[5] [6] The PAGASA raised TCWS #1 at 21:00 UTC on 23 September, with TCWS #3 being raised a day later as the storm rapidly intensified into a typhoon.[7][8]

Current storm information

Watches and warnings

Preparations

Philippines

The PAGASA began releasing bulletins on the storm on September 22. Initially expected to remain a tropical depression, the agency raised the possibility of raising tropical cyclone wind signals up to Signal No. 1.[9] The PAGASA began raising Signal No. 1 as early as September 23; signals were first raised in Isabela and Aurora.[10] The Flood Forecasting and Warning Section of the PAGASA also issued advisories in parts of Ifugao and Isabela which were next to the Magat River — the main spillway of the Magat Dam, which was nearby the storm's forecast track.[11] The National Telecommunications Commission also instructed telecommunications companies to ensure sufficient resources in areas forecast to be affected by the storm.[12][13]

On September 24, the Magat Dam began discharging excess water at a rate of 200 cubic centimetres (12 cu in) per second in preparation for the storm.[14][15][16] The PAGASA also began raising Signal No. 2 in parts of Isabela, Aurora, and the Polillo Islands. Now expected to reach typhoon intensity, the agency warned of the possibility of raising Signal No. 4 as the storm neared.[17] Bataan suspended classes on all levels.[18] In Cagayan and Isabela, farmers harvested their crops early in preparation.[19] The Office of Civil Defense (OCD) in Cagayan Valley was put on red alert; bans on sailing, fishing, and the sale of liquor were imposed on the region.[20] The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and the provincial disaster agency for Cagayan also secured funds for immediate response and prepared food packs and personnel throughout the region.[21] The OCD in the Bicol region also went on blue alert, bracing for the effects of the enhanced southwest monsoon.[22] The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) was also put on red alert as it activated its Emergency Operations Center teams.[23][24] The Mines and Geosciences Bureau also warned of landslides and flooding in parts of Nueva Vizcaya, Quirino, and Cagayan.[25] The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) also closed Kennon Road, a major yet hazardous road that connects La Union and Baguio in Benguet, citing public safety reasons.[26][27] The DPWH also began preparing quick response teams consisting of maintenance personnel and equipment which will oversee the passability of roads in affected areas.[28] The Philippine Red Cross prepared its volunteers, which included operations staff and on-the-ground personnel.[29] Telecommunications companies PLDT, Smart, and Globe prepared their free calling and charging stations for rapid deployment.[30][31] On the evening of September 24 (PHT), Signal No. 3 was raised in the Polillo Islands and in parts of Camarines Norte.[32]

In the morning of September 25 (PHT), following a sustained period of rapid intensification, the PAGASA assessed the storm's development into a super typhoon. Subsequently, the agency began raising Signal No. 4, starting with the Polillo Islands. A landfall as a super typhoon was not ruled out, with the agency expecting to raise its highest wind signal level, Signal No. 5, as the storm passes.[33] Quezon, Bicol, and Baguio's local disaster agencies were placed on red alert.[34][35][36] At 11:00 PHT (03:00 UTC), Signal No. 5 was raised in the Polillo Islands and the extreme northern portion of Quezon.[37]

Muntinlupa ordered the evacuation of families in hazardous areas of the city; around 86 families — 300 persons — were also evacuated in Dingalan, Quezon.[38][31] Quezon City and the province of Quezon both began forced evacuations of their residents on the morning of the storm's onslaught.[31]

The cities and lone municipality of Metro Manila, with the exception of Makati, Malabon, and Valenzuela, all independently declared the suspensions of classes on all levels for the following day, September 26 (a Monday). Classes for September 26 were also suspended on all levels in parts of Calabarzon and Central Luzon.[39] Courts in Metro Manila, Central Luzon, Calabarzon, and Bicol were ordered closed on September 26.[40] National Collegiate Athletic Association and Shakey's Super League games were canceled as the storm neared Metro Manila, now under Signal No. 3; the Philippine Basketball Association also postponed its games slated for September 25 to 27.[41][42]

Impact

Philippines

As ports suspended travel on September 24, 85 roll-on/roll-off cargo ships and at least 742 passengers were reported stranded by the Philippine Coast Guard.[43][44] By the following day, over 1,200 passengers, 297 roll-on/roll-off ships, and 41 other vessels were stranded in ports of the Calabarzon and Bicol regions.[31] Boat trips in the Bicol region, Batangas, and Mindoro were suspended.[31] Six flights, five international and one domestic, were cancelled due to inclement weather.[31] 14 ports were rendered non-operational in areas of Quezon and Batangas.[45]
