Super Typhoon Ragasa — the strongest storm on Earth this year — slammed the Philippines with winds topping 165 mph before setting its sights on Hong Kong and southern China. Over 100,000 people have evacuated, airports are shut, and megacities are grinding to a halt. The storm has already claimed lives and forced schools and businesses across the region to close.

Why It’s Hot:
This is global-impact news with breathtaking visuals — every clip of Ragasa’s satellite imagery looks cinematic. Audiences are glued to updates, and it’s the kind of unfolding story that thrives on short, frequent posts.
