The Central Philippines have been mercifully spared the devastation that Haiyan previously wrought in the area.

This time around, about 650,000 people fled and sought shelter in safer grounds, away from Hagupit’s path.

The typhoon’ s ferocious 140 km/h winds ripped apart shanties and store signs and knocked out power in entire coastal provinces, but so far there are no reports of fatalities.
