Packing 140 kph winds and gusts of up to 170 kph, Aghon will continue to intensify over the next two days and may exit the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) on Wednesday afternoon or evening as a typhoon.

At least 4 people were injured due to falling trees, Posadas added.

Disaster officials are still investigating reports that a child had died during the storm.
