Typhoon Goni has made landfall as a Category 5–equivalent super typhoon on Catanduanes Island in the Philippines and became the strongest landfalling tropical cyclone on record. The storm brought severe flash flooding to Legazpi, as well as lahar flow from the nearby Mayon Volcano. There are widespread power outages as well as damaged power and transmission lines in the Bicol Region. Crops were also heavily damaged. Over 390,000 out of 1 million evacuated individuals have been displaced in the region.
Debris and lahars had also blocked various roads and the Basud Bridge.
