As we say good-by to the 2000 Atlantic Hurricane today....

"Tropical storm hits Philippines"

Tropical Storm Rumbia is blasting the Southern Philippines and hundreds
of
people have been forced from their homes. The storm was centered over
Surigao Island, which is a popular surfing area about 470 miles
southeast
of Manila. Heavy rain and high waves have prompted alerts for possible
flash flooding and landslides in 16 provinces.

Nine towns already were flooded in northern Mindanao and more than 1,600
people had to leave their homes because of rising water, according to
the
Office of Civil Defense.

The storm has knocked out power to Surigao City and surrounding areas.
An average of 20 tropical storms and typhoons hit the Philippines every
year.
