Weather forecasts say Category-1 Typhoon Megi is expected to strengthen with winds of at least 93 mph as it makes landfall along the northeastern coast of the main island of Luzon this weekend.
On Friday, the weather bureau warned fishermen and travelers to stay out of harm's way and farmers to harvest crops early. It expects heavy rainfall of 2 inches per hour.
More than 100 people were killed by a typhoon in July, when an angry President Benigno Aquino III fired the head of the weather bureau for failing to predict that the storm would hit Manila.
