As Typhoons Wipha and Dante leave a trail of destruction across the Philippines—flooding communities, damaging homes and infrastructure, affecting livelihoods, and displacing thousands—Tropical Storm Emong enters the Philippine Area of Responsibility, threatening to cause further damage.

Some locations offer charging stations for mobile devices and waived parking fees.
