Typhoon Goni (2020)

Goni held Category 5 strength for more than a day before making landfall on Catanduanes at its peak, with 10-minute sustained winds of 220 km/h, 1-minute winds of 315 km/h and a central pressure of 905 hPa. It weakened quickly after that as it crossed the Sierra Madre range of the Philippines. By the time it reached Vietnam it had fallen to a tropical depression, where it flooded numerous areas and eroded and damaged roads.
