Where is Josh Morgerman right now? He will be inside the Eye of Man-yi?

Looks like he'll get in the eye later based on radar.

I was able to talk to him awhile ago, he went up north.
I think he nailed the Eye in Dipaculao.

It's mayhem here in Baler with whistlin offshore wind and this is the weak side.

Yesterday's data from PAGASA Baler AWS, which was located just south of Man-Yi's eye. Lowest sea-level pressure was 964.2 mb at 2:50pm PhT (06:50Z), and station went offline after 3pm.

When Josh says it's bad, it was really bad...

basically, most ferocious since Dorian based on his experience.

Walked around the town of Baler earlier and what I saw were just typical typhoon damage like fallen trees (mostly exotic trees) and some roof failure on not well constructed buildings but overall i would say Baler dodged a freakin missile.


The town where Josh intercepted the eye and the next town up north took the full brunt of Man-yi. We haven't seen the full extent of it yet.

Is your family okay with you inserting yourself into the path of a killer cyclone? I mean you no disrespect, but I wonder. I'm glad you are safe.

Here's some of Stas' intense footage.
We actually stayed at the same hotel but he checked out earlier to search for a better location up north

My estimate at central pressure landfall is ~940 mb based on obs from Baler. Can't wait to see Josh's data in the eye!

Wow, these photos were taken during the eye.

Is over but was an impactable one and reached cat 5.

[doomhaMwx]

951.8 mb, that's much higher than I expected.

Vegetation damage in Dipaculao is extreme.
