MANILA, Philippines – Karding (Noru) made its first landfall in Burdeos, Quezon, as a super typhoon at 5:30 pm on Sunday, September 25, then made its second landfall in Dingalan, Aurora, as a typhoon at 8:20 pm.
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) earlier said in its 8 pm bulletin on Sunday that Karding slightly weakened after its first landfall, with its maximum sustained winds decreasing from 195 km/h to 185 km/h.
It was expected to continue weakening after that, though still remaining within typhoon category.
A typhoon has maximum sustained winds ranging from 118 to 184 km/h, while a super typhoon has maximum sustained winds of 185 km/h and above.
PAGASA also earlier said Karding continued to move west at 20 kilometers per hour (km/h).
