Typhoon Odette (Rai) flattened parts of Siargao with strong winds and heavy rains and damaged the roof of the surfing island's airport, Coast Guard images released Friday showed. Siargao bore the brunt of Odette's eight landfalls from late Thursday with Signal no. 4 winds (171-220 kph). Aerial footage showed felled trees, homes without roofs, and scattered debris. Coastal areas were flooded. Here, some of the first photos of the aftermath of the typhoon.
