Typhoon Hagupit / Ruby has now made landfall in eastern Samar near the city of Oras home to about 34,000 residents. The storm took a rapid jog west just prior
Hagupit just prior to landfall
to landfall bringing its time of crossing the shore slightly earlier than anticipated.
Jogs in a storms track are common at landfall in mountainous areas due to friction that often occurs when a storm comes ashore.
For those who have been asking what agency is getting it right, looks like PAGASA the official agency of the Philippines as far as the final location of landfall. Even though the storm is now coming on shore this story is not over yet.  Hagupit continues to track at a very slow pace and damaging winds have only now just started to encompass the island of Samar, even as far as Guinan winds up to 122kph were reported.
Good news it that local goverments already have forced evacuations in place in this area as well as many residents are taking proper preparations.  About 500,000 people have been told to evacuate according to local officials on Saturday.
Rappler released this video of a storm surge in Northern Samar Saturday afternoon.

Below is the ECMWF rainfall accumulation outlook over the next 96hrs.  This image is to demonstrate that the winds and the surge will not be the only threat with this storm, but also the rainfall. Som areas could see well over 500mm resulting in a serious threat of landslides and flooding. Those living in low lying areas or along steep mountain slopes in the storms path should also be ready for this storm.
