    Six million people on evacuation stanby as Typhoon Koppu hits The Philippines:
    It's the 24th tropical storm of the season with typhoon Champi (25W), the 25th not far away!
    The Philippines is preparing for a typhoon that is forecast to dump heavy rain and cause severe flooding when it arrives at the weekend.
    On Friday President Benigno Aquino warned people living in the path of Typhoon Koppu to be ready to evacuate.
    In a TV address, he said the storm could bring up to 12 hours' torrential rain and cause severe flooding.
    It was Mr Aquino's first such appeal since Typhoon Haiyan struck in 2013, leaving more than 6,000 people dead.
    Koppu is due to hit the northern island of Luzon early on Sunday.
    Forecasters say it is packing winds of up to 180km/h (115mph) and is slow moving, meaning it could bring intense rain over a long period of time.
    The first heavy rain was expected in parts of northern and central Luzon on Saturday.
    In his address, Mr Aquino urged the estimated six million people in the typhoon's direct path to listen to government warnings and be ready to evacuate their homes if necessary.

    Koppu will not only strengthen as it approaches the Philippines but will also slow down significantly. The combination of a powerful and slow-moving typhoon could spell a disastrous situation for residents and communities in its path, which will be northern Luzon Island in Koppu's case.
    From this weekend into early next week, Koppu will crawl toward and into northern Luzon Island before eventually turning to the north.
    Koppu is expected to make landfall, but how quickly it turns north will determine the duration of life-threatening conditions for northern Luzon. Accu weather

    NASA's GPM Sees Koppu Menacing The Philippines Tropical storm Koppu was approaching the Philippines when the GPM core observatory satellite passed above on October 15, 2015 at 1436 UTC (10:36 a.m. EDT) and analyzed the intensifying storm's rainfall. By October 16, the storm intensified into a typhoon as it neared Luzon.
