Fishermen missing as Typhoon Utor hits Philippines

Posted Image
Rain has fallen in the capital, Manila, and some schools are closed

A powerful typhoon has hit the northern Philippines, leaving at least 23 fishermen missing.

The storm made landfall in the north of the main island of Luzon early on Monday, bringing winds of up to 200km/h (124 mph) and torrential rain.

Power lines were brought down in some places and ferries were suspended, stranding thousands of passengers.

Typhoon Utor is expected to remain in the northern Philippines for most of Monday before sweeping out to sea.

It is then expected to move across the South China Sea towards southern China.

Heavy rain hit the capital, Manila, where some schools were closed, but there were no reports of major flooding.

A number of domestic flights were also cancelled.

The missing fishermen all come from Catanduanes, an island province off Luzon's east coast.

Officials said they hoped the men had taken shelter in nearby islands.


I notice that Catanduanes has the word CAT in it, and I also notice the umbrella in the picture, on the Fisherman Page I also notice the following...

Main article: History of fishing

Fishing has existed as a means of obtaining food since the Mesolithic period. By the time of the Ancient Egyptians, fishermen provided the majority of food for Egyptians. Fishing had become a major means of survival as well as a business venture.http://www.icsf.net/icsf2006/uploads/publications/samudra/pdf/english/issue_28/art01.pdf Fisheries history Fishing and the fisherman had also influenced Ancient Egyptian religion; mullets were worshiped as a sign of the arriving flood season. Bastet was often manifested in the form of a catfish. In ancient Egyptian literature, the method that Amun used to create the world is associated with the tilapia's method of mouth-brooding.
