Super Typhoon #UwanPH continued to lash the Bicol Region afternoon on Sunday, November 9, 2025, bringing life-threatening winds, torrential rain, and powerful storm surges as it moved closer to the Aurora coastline, according to PAGASA's 2 p.m. bulletin.
At 1 p.m., the center of Uwan was spotted 100 kilometers northeast of Daet, Camarines Norte, with maximum sustained winds of 185 kilometers per hour (km/h) and gusts reaching 230 km/h. It was moving west-northwest at 30 km/h.
The typhoon’s winds extend up to 900 kilometers from its center.
Uwan is expected to pass close to the Calaguas and Polillo Islands this evening before making landfall in Aurora province late tonight or early Monday morning.
PAGASA said a “direct hit” where the typhoon’s eyewall passes directly over these islands even without landfall is also possible.
After crossing Aurora, Uwan will move across the mountains of Northern Luzon, likely weakening but remaining a typhoon as it exits toward Lingayen Gulf or the coastal waters of Pangasinan or La Union by Monday morning.
It will then head toward Taiwan and is expected to weaken further by midweek.

PAGASA said rainfall could exceed 200 millimeters in parts of Isabela, Quirino, Nueva Vizcaya, Kalinga, Benguet, Zambales, Aurora, Nueva Ecija, Quezon, Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, Catanduanes, and Albay until Monday noon.
Flooding and landslides are likely, especially in mountainous and low-lying areas that have already been soaked by earlier rains.
Storm surges over three meters high are expected within the next 48 hours along low-lying coastal areas of Catanduanes, Camarines Norte, Quezon, Aurora, Zambales, Metro Manila, Cavite, Batangas, and nearby provinces. Residents are urged to evacuate if advised by local authorities.
Sea conditions across Luzon and the Visayas remain extremely dangerous. Waves could reach up to 14 meters along eastern Luzon coasts. PAGASA warned all vessels to stay in port, while small boats should not attempt to sail in any affected waters.
PAGASA advised the public to prepare for more strong winds and heavy rains tonight as Uwan nears landfall. The agency reminded everyone not to focus only on the typhoon’s center, as severe weather can reach far from the eye.
