Taipei, June 6 (CNA) A tropical disturbance off the southeastern coast of the Philippines may become the first typhoon of the Western Pacific typhoon season of 2025, the Central Weather Administration (CWA) said Friday.
The storm currently lacks a visible center, and how it will develop will only become clear on Sunday and Monday, the CWA said, noting that it was not yet possible to forecast the potential typhoon's effect on Taiwan.
