00:00So, let's start with the weather systems that are affecting different parts of our country.

00:06At the moment, we are being monitored by a low-pressure area in the southern part of Mindanao.

00:11As of 3 a.m., it was last seen at a distance of 310 kilometers east-northeast of Davao City.

00:17And if we can see here in the latest satellite image,

00:20the clouds that brought this low-pressure area are expected to affect the southern part of Visayas and Mindanao.

00:28So, we expect that there will be chances of heavy rains,

00:33and possibly floods or landslides.

00:36So, be careful, our fellow countrymen.

00:39Meanwhile, in the northern part of our country,

00:42particularly here in the northern part of Southern Luzon,

00:45as well as in the northern part of Mindanao,

00:48there is still a continuous effect of southwest monsoon.

00:52If we can see in the satellite image,

00:54although there are clouds that we can see,

00:56it does not continue here in our country because we have a circulation or typhoon

01:01here in the area of Vietnam that is stretching here in the south.

01:06So, mostly, these clouds are only affected here in the area of Palawan,

01:11and it will also bring isolated thunderstorms,

01:14mostly here in the western sections of Southern Luzon,

01:17as well as the western sections of Mindanao.

01:20In the western part of our country,

01:23we still experience isolated rain showers or thunderstorms,

01:26especially when it comes to the afternoon or night,

01:29the hot weather is still possible when it comes to the afternoon.

01:33And the areas affected by this southwest monsoon,

01:36this morning, it is also possible to experience sudden and rapid rainfall.
