“Egay is forecast to continue intensifying and reach super typhoon category within 24 hours. However, should the track forecast shift closer to the landmass of Luzon,” Pagasa said.

“A weakening trend may begin as the typhoon passes over the Babuyan Islands due to the potential onset of eyewall replacement cycle and interaction with the rugged terrain of Northern Luzon. Further weakening is expected outside the PAR (Philippine area of Responsibility) region due to an increasingly unfavorable environment and the eventual landfall over the landmass of China,” it added.
