Former Typhoon Hagupit (Ruby) Slowly Moves Through the Philippines; Dangerous Flood Threat Continues

Former Super Typhoon Hagupit was downgraded to a tropical storm Sunday evening U.S. time but continues to lash the Philippines with locally heavy rainfall.
Hagupit, known in the Philippines as Ruby, has made two landfalls in that country as a typhoon and continues to lash the central and northern portions of the country with heavy rainfall and blustery winds.
Just over 1 million people had been evacuated due to the storm as of Monday morning, local time, according to the Philippines National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council.
 In general, a tropical cyclone's rainfall potential depends on how slowly it moves, not its intensity. Hagupit will be moving along very slowly over an area with rugged terrain. As a result, rainfall totals could be extraordinarily high -- locally exceeding 18 inches -- leading to landslides, debris flows, and life-threatening flash floods.
