TYPHOON “Vinta” (international name: Tembin) exited the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) on Sunday as Mindanao and other affected areas may expect generally improved weather on Christmas Day, the state-run weather bureau said.

The Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said that although Vinta intensified into a typhoon early Sunday morning, it was headed out of the country and as of 10 a.m. was located 300 kilometers (km) south-southeast of Pagasa Island in Palawan.
