MANILA: Metro Manila and various parts of Luzon are at “high risk” of storm surge within the next 48 hours due to Super Typhoon Pepito (international name: Man-yi), the state weather bureau warned on Sunday (Nov 17) morning.
According to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa), a storm surge is “the abnormal rise in sea level that occurs during tropical cyclones or typhoons.”
