At least two people have died and millions of others have evacuated as Super Typhoon Fung-wong ravages the Philippines. While the typhoon — known locally as Uwan — is the 21st storm to hit the Southeast Asian archipelago this year, it is by far the biggest with an approximately 994-mile wide rain and wind band that could cover two-thirds of the nation, according to The Independent. As the violent storm threatens the country’s northeastern coast, millions of people have evacuated from villages at risk of flash floods, landslides, and tidal surges.
