Typhoon Man-yi passed over the Philippines bringing heavy rain, strong winds (up to 185 kmh) and tidal surges. The storm caused extensive flooding and landslides and uprooted many trees and damaged homes and power lines, leaving hundreds of cities without electricity.

The typhoon is the sixth major storm to hit the Philippines in less than a month.
