Super Typhoon Maysak Weakens

The Philippines are still on alert for the weakening once-Super Typhoon Maysak. Its course is still set to make landfall on Luzon Island this weekend.  Maysak will either be a tropical storm or on the verge of becoming one by the time it hits early Saturday.

This storm was at its peak intensity with 160 mph Category 5 Hurricane Winds on April 1st but is weakening slowly with strong wind shear as it makes its way to the Philippines.  Power Outages and flooding are still a concern with this storm through Sunday evening.

Once exiting the Philippines, Typhoon Maysak which by then should only be a tropical storm system is not expected to strengthen as it enters the China Sea.
