A beach watch count from Monday showed that nearly 700 passengers were stranded at ports, with the wind support advising that” water journey is difficult for all types or tonnage of vessels.”

” All seafarers must stay in port or, if afoot, find shelter or healthy bay as soon as possible until winds and waves subside”, it added.

Beatrice Torres, a wind forecaster, reported to AFP that a tropical depression might form in the area as early as Thursday evening.

Tropical Storm Man-yi, now south of Guam, may also harm the Philippines next month, she added.

On Thursday, Typhoon Yinxing slammed into the region’s northern coast, damaging homes and houses.

A 12-year-old lady was crushed to death in one event.

Each year, the island or its surrounding waters are hit by about 20 large storms and typhoons.

According to a recent study, climate change is causing storms in the Asia-Pacific area to form closer to coasts, intensifying more quickly, and lasting long over land.
