Rescue assets, lifeboats and relief goods have been deployed to high-risk areas across Bicol and Central Luzon, while the Department of Social Welfare and Development and the Philippine Coast Guard stand by for rapid response. Pagasa said Uwan could remain a super typhoon through landfall before slightly weakening as it crosses Luzon’s mountain ranges.
