Super Typhoon "Juan" is the third storm with Signal #4 that ever hit the Philippines. Storm signal No. 4 is raised when winds exceed 200 kph. The last time PAGASA raised a signal No. 4 alert was in 1995 and in 2006 during typhoon Reming and La Nina, respectivly, which killed more than 700 people and damaged property worth over P5 billion. That's why the government is strictly monitoring the updates on this typhoon via the weather forecast of PAGASA (Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration) hourly. They do not want that tragedy brought by "Ondoy" last year. All government units have been preparing for this since last year.
