MANILA — Tropical cyclone Yagi, known as Enteng locally, intensified into a super typhoon on Thursday morning over the South China Sea, state weather agency PAGASA said.

As of 8 a.m., Yagi was packing winds of 195 kilometers per hour and up to 240 kph gusts, PAGASA said.

The Yagi-enhanced southwest monsoon or habagat will continue to bring up to torrential rains over the western sections of Luzon, including Metro Manila this Thursday.

The bad weather caused floods in some Metro Manila roads and prompted the cancellation of several flights.

Storm Enteng left a trail of destruction in the Philippines, with damage to agriculture reaching P350.85 million, according to the Department of Agriculture.

Landslides and flash floods caused by Enteng killed at least 15 people while 21 were still missing, the Office of Civil Defense said Wednesday.

Those who perished included a person who suffered head trauma after being hit by a wall that collapsed, a pregnant woman killed by a landslide, a man who was electrocuted as the floodwaters rose, and a baby who drowned.
