A weakened Typhoon Goni was headed towards Japan on Sunday August 23,2015, after
battering the northern Philippines leaving at least 10 dead, and causing
thousands of people to be evacuated off Taiwan's east coast.
On Sunday morning August 23,2015, Typhoon Goni, packing gusts of 170 kilometres (106 miles) per hour, was located 360 kilometres (224 miles) from the Philippines' northernmost Batanes islands, moving northeast at 17 kilometres per hour, the Philippines government weather station said.
The Philippines was hit hardest by the storm, which triggered landslides and floods, killing at least ten people and leaving 17 missing in the north of the main island of Luzon
In the northern province of Ilocos Norte, an island town in the middle of a river had its bridge destroyed, leaving about 730 families stranded, officials said.
The storm is the ninth out of an average of 20 that hit the Philippines each year.
