The Philippine island is recovering from its second typhoon in a week. Last week it was hit by Typhoon Nesat which is now blamed for 52 deaths and this weekend it was hit by Typhoon Nalgae which is blamed for at least three deaths. The two typhoons have dumped up to 50 centimetres of rain on parts of Luzon causing flooding and threats of landslides. Even though the Philippines has been hit by two typhoons in under a week, the region is not receiving above average typhoons for the year.
