The country's 17th storm this year was last estimated in the vicinity of Malinao, Albay as of 7 p.m., moving west at 25 km per hour while packing winds of 130 kph and gusts of up to 180 kph, PAGASA said.

It is forecast to move generally westward as it traverses Southern Luzon until Monday afternoon, and is likely to exit the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) on Tuesday, PAGASA added.
