Here are a couple of Associated Press Photos (selected for our AP Photo of the Day feature) showing the incredible damage wreaked by Typhoon Xangsane in the Phillipines capital city of Manila.

Xangsane unleashed powerful winds as much as 130 kilometers per hour (81 mph) and dumped heavy rains across northern and central Philippines on Thursday cutting off roads and phone lines as authorities shut down schools, ferries and the country's financial markets. At least ten people were reportedly killed by Xangsane's fury, the 10th typhoon to hit the country this season. (AP Photo/Carl Valentin)

Tonight, Xangsane is expected to make a second landfall in Vietname with 100-mph winds and 25-foot waves. For more specific information, stay tuned to International Weather Expert Jim Andrews (PREMIUM | PRO).
