It's now early Friday morning in the Philippines. Via PAGASA, whose website seems overloaded: Tropical Cyclone Update.
Tropical Cyclone Update Issued at: 5:00 a.m., 08 November 2013 (click here to view 5:00 a.m. bulletin) Typhoon "YOLANDA" has made landfall over Guiuan, Eastern Samar.
Thanks to Lucie Lecomte, I have a number of local news sites:
Typhoon's projected track. This indicates that when Haiyan/Yolanda leaves the Philippines Friday night, it will cross the South China Sea and hit central or northern Vietnam on Sunday night. Its strength will not be much diminished; forecast winds for 8:00 p.m. Sunday night are 205 kph (165 mph). It's also likely to sideswipe China's Hainan Island
