Typhoon Kalmaegi made landfall in central Vietnam on Thursday, unleashing destructive winds and torrential rain just days after devastating the Philippines. The storm has forced mass evacuations, airport closures, and raised fears of further flooding and agricultural damage across Southeast Asia.

Kalmaegi was a typhoon in the Philippine Sea Monday afternoon Philippine Time, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center said in its latest advisory. Flash flooding can occur well inland and away from the storm’s center. Even weaker storms can produce excessive rainfall that can flood low-lying areas.

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration is currently monitoring a developing storm east of Mindanao that is expected to enter the Philippine area of responsibility as Typhoon Uwan by tonight or early tomorrow and may intensify into a super typhoon while approaching Northern Luzon.
