Hanna made its second landfall in Taiwan’s Kaohsiung City at 4 a.m. on Monday. According to Pagasa’s 11 a.m. update, the typhoon was already 360 kilometers northwest of Itbayat, Batanes, with maximum sustained winds of 120 kilometers per hour (kph) near the center and gusts of up to 165 kph. It was moving north-northwestward at 15 kph.
Pagasa added that the Hanna-enhanced southwest monsoon, locally called habagat, may bring rains and windy conditions to many parts of the Philippines, especially over the western portion of Luzon, until Wednesday, September 6.
Hanna is expected to weaken into a severe tropical storm “due to prolonged interaction with the rugged terrain of Taiwan” and may become a “remnant low” by late Wednesday or Thursday while moving further into China, Pagasa further stated.
