\nMANILA, Philippines<\/a>\u2014The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration<\/a> (Pagasa) has denied reports typhoon<\/a> Pepeng (international codename: Parma) will hit Metro Manila Friday night.
\n\u201cDefinitely that will not happen,\u201d said Pagasa director Prisco Nilo, referring to text messages<\/a> saying that Pepeng will bear down on disaster-struck Metro Manila at 9 p.m.
\nBut he advised residents to prepare as the typhoon was forecast to dump more rains.
\nAs of 4 p.m., Pepeng was seen over 150 kilometers north northeast of Virac, Catanduanes<\/a> packing maximum sustained winds<\/a> of up to 195 kilometers per hour near the center and gusts of up to 230 kph.
\nIt was forecast to move west northwest at 13 kph headed for northern Luzon<\/a>.
