Typhoon Maring hits Cagayan PH

 

Severe Tropical Storm Kompasu, known as Typhoon Kompasu in China and Hong Kong^[1][2] and Severe Tropical Storm Maring in the Philippines,^[3] was a deadly and destructive tropical cyclone that affected the Philippines, Taiwan, and Southeast China. Part of the 2021 Pacific typhoon season, Kompasu originated from an area of low pressure east of the Philippines on October 6. The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) classified it as a tropical depression that day. A day later, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) classified it as a tropical depression, naming it Maring. The cyclone was initially heavily disorganized, competing with another vortex, Tropical Depression Nando. Eventually, Maring became dominant, and the JMA reclassified it as a tropical storm, naming it Kompasu. Kompasu made landfall in Cagayan, Philippines, on October 11, and two days later, the storm made landfall in Hainan, China. The cyclone dissipated on October 14 while located over Vietnam.
