Vanko, which carries sustained winds of 78 MPH, is the 21st tropical storm to hit the Philippines this year. Video shot in Paris Calais, a town on the main island of Luzon, showed high winds and heavy rain lashing buildings and trees in the area. Residents in coastal communities air expecting up to a 9 ft storm surge. Hundreds of residents living near the coastlines of the capital, Manila, were also evacuated in anticipation of possible storm surges as it is expected to pass there Thursday by Naminohana. This resident says her house is not sturdy, so they're evacuating to safeguard their kids. After lashing the Philippines, Vanko is forecast to head towards Vietnam.
