But the nation appeared to avoid a  major  disaster because the rapidly moving typhoon blew away before  wreaking  more damage, officials said. Huge Typhoon Haiyan raced across a  string  of islands from east to west - Samar, Leyte, Cebu and Panay- and  lashed  beach communities with over 200 kilometer  (124 mile) per hour  winds .
