Answer:
Typhoon Rolly and Typhoon Ulysses Situation Update
• Just days after the onslaught of Typhoon Rolly (international name: Goni) on 1 November, Typhoon Ulysses (international name: Vamco) roughly crossed the same track and made landfall on 11 November.
Rolly and Ulysses both left trails of destruction and affected millions of people in eight regions, hundreds of thousands of which remain displaced.
• The death toll from Ulysses has risen to more than 70 and severely damages property and infrastructure. In Isabela and Cagayan provinces in the Cagayan Valley, heavy rains threatened to overspill Magat Dam, the largest in the country.
Authorities released water from the dam to prevent it from spilling, but the surge from the opened floodgates submerged many houses.
• The Government of the Philippines leads the emergency response to typhoons Rolly and Ulysses and welcomed complementary support from the United Nations Country Team and other humanitarian actors.
Explanation:
Is Typhoon Ulysses stronger than Rolly?
Who should have taken the lead? Super Typhoon Rolly (Goni) has been the strongest tropical cyclone to hit Earth so far this year, yet it was the 3rd storm after that, Typhoon Ulysses (Vamco) that had the worse impact: at least 67 dead as of Monday, November 16.
