This is from the Australian:
A TROPICAL storm has raged across the central Philippines today, leaving at least six people dead, including four fishermen whose motorboat was destroyed.
The storm packing winds of 75km/h struck the eastern Samar province yesterday and by today was roaring westward over the Philippines towards the South China Sea.
The winds have destroyed houses while about 10,000 people are stranded aboard hundreds of ferries and motorboats.
People on watercraft have been ordered to stay docked for safety, the National Disaster Coordinating Council said.
At least two people are believed to have drowned in the floods.
More than 60 domestic flights have been cancelled, airline officials said.
