00:00And in our latest satellite images, we can see three major weather systems that are affecting our country.

00:06The southwest monsoon, particularly here in the northern part of our province.

00:11We have a low-pressure area in the north of Northern Luzon.

00:16And we also have a typhoon outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility with an international name of Pulasan.

00:22So let's start with the low-pressure area that is located 400 km east of Togegaraw City in Cagayan.

00:30Or 385 km east-northeast of Casiguran in Aurora.

00:35Today, there is a high chance that there will be a typhoon in this low-pressure area in the east of Togegaraw.

00:42That's why we should be careful, especially our countrymen here in the Cagayan Valley Region.

00:46When there is a typhoon, this low-pressure area will receive a tropical second wind signal,

00:52particularly here in the Cagayan Valley Region.

00:56We expect that today, there will be a high chance of rain, especially in the area of Northern Luzon,

01:01this area of Cagayan Valley, along with this part of Aurora.

01:04And there will also be gusts of wind as it approaches.

01:07Because we expect that it will possibly approach this low-pressure area of our land,

01:12this low-pressure area that could be a typhoon on this day.

01:16Next, there will be a typhoon outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility

01:20that has an international name, Pulasan.

01:23You know, Pulasan means a type of fruit in Malaysia.

01:28So, Malaysia gave this name to this part of our land.

01:35And its last location is at 4 a.m., more than 2,000 km east-southeastern of Luzon.

01:41This will not have a direct effect on our country, and based on the track that I will show later,

01:46there is a small chance that this will approach our land,

01:49and it is possible that it will only follow the track like the Ferdi.

01:53And this could also cause a strong typhoon,

01:56and this is the third weather season that has affected our country.

01:59You will see that there is a high chance that there will be a typhoon

02:02that will be experienced in a large part of our country,

02:05up to Southwest Monsoon or typhoon.

02:08We will also add the effect of low-pressure air,

02:11because you will see that it is almost cloudy in the sky

02:13that will affect our country when there is heavy rainfall,

02:18especially in the areas of Western Visayas and Mimaropa.

02:24In other parts of Visayas, Southern Luzon,

02:27and also in parts of Northern Mindanao,

02:29we will continue to experience heavy rainfall.

02:32So, we should be careful about the possibilities of sudden floods

02:35and landslides.

02:37In Manila, it is also cloudy in the sky

02:40in Central Luzon and other parts of Luzon.

02:46Aside from this, we do not monitor any other low-pressure areas

02:49inside and outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility.

02:52And here is the track of the Typhoon Sipulasa.

02:55Tropical Cyclone Advisory came out

03:00as of 5 a.m. today.

03:02You will see that, just like Ferdi,

03:05it is only possible for it to appear here on the boundary of the park.

03:08We do not rule out the possibility that it may not enter

03:11especially if the track changes.

03:13But we can see, based on our latest data,

03:16whether or not this Typhoon Sipulasa will enter,

03:19it will intensify the drought.

03:21That is why the rainfall will continue,

03:22especially in parts of Southern Luzon and Visayas.

03:27Southern Luzon is the area of Bicol Region,

03:29Mimaropa, and also in parts of Calabarzon.

03:32Rainfall may also occur here in Manila.

03:35And it is also possible for the Philippine Area of Responsibility

03:39to enter here on Wednesday.

03:42So, from tomorrow, Tuesday, until Wednesday,

03:44this is the duration of the Typhoon Sipulasa entering and exiting.

03:49The name of the next Typhoon,

03:52whether it is this Typhoon Sipulasa

03:54or the low-pressure area in Misilangan, Tuguegarao,

03:57is Henner.

03:58The next Typhoon to enter is Helen.

04:00These are the two names of the Typhoons

04:02that will be the names of the Typhoons.

04:05Typhoon Henner and Typhoon Helen.

04:08And here, I would like to say that

04:11there is a high chance of heavy rainfall,

04:14especially in the area of Occidental Mindoro.

04:17We have monitored heavy rainfall in this part of our country.

04:21That is why our countrymen,

04:23especially in Mimaropa,

04:24should be careful about sudden floods and landslides.

04:27There will also be heavy rainfall in the Bicol region.

04:30Meanwhile,

04:31the heavy rainfall in the northern Luzon,

04:37central Luzon,

04:38and here in Manila is moderate.

04:39Today, the sky is cloudy in Manila

04:43because of the heavy rainfall and landslides.

04:46The temperature outside is 26 to 31 degrees Celsius.

04:49In Tuguegarao, 24 to 30 degrees Celsius.

04:51In Baguio, 17 to 23 degrees Celsius.

04:53In Manila, 25 to 31.

04:56In Tagaytay, up to 29 degrees Celsius.

04:58Meanwhile, in Legazpi, up to 29 degrees Celsius.

05:01Heavy rainfall will also be experienced

05:03in a large part of Palawan on this day.

05:06The temperature in Kalayaan Islands is 25 to 30 degrees Celsius.

05:10In Puerto Princesa, 25 to 30 degrees Celsius.

05:12Rainfall will also be experienced in the western Visayas

05:15and Negros Island region.

05:17Meanwhile, heavy rainfall will be experienced

05:19in a large part of Cabizayaan.

05:21This is the tip of the southwest monsoon or Habagat.

05:24The temperature in Iloilo is 25 to 29 degrees Celsius.

05:28In Cebu, 24 to 29 degrees Celsius.

05:31In Bastakloban, 27 to 30 degrees Celsius.

05:34A large part of Mindanao will experience

05:36a cloudy sky with heavy rainfall.

05:39Meanwhile, in Davao region,

05:41isolated or cloudy rainfall will be experienced

05:44from dusk to dusk

05:46in Davao region.

05:50The temperature in Zamboanga is 26 to 30 degrees Celsius.

05:53In Cagayan de Oro, 26 to 31 degrees Celsius.

05:55In Davao, 26 to 33 degrees Celsius.

06:00Meanwhile, we have a high gale warning today.

06:02This is the effect of the southwest monsoon or Habagat.

06:05Be careful, especially our fellow countrymen

06:07in Occidental Mindoro, Palawan, Romblon,

06:10Masbate, western Visayas,

06:12Negros Island region, central Visayas,

06:14southern Leyte,

06:15in Leyte, Zamboanga del Norte,

06:18Camiguin, Dinagat Island,

06:20and Surigao del Norte

06:21compared to the area of northern Mindanao.

06:23You can see that in places where we have reddish colors,

06:28we expect a high sea level.

06:30Avoid going too far,

06:31especially small boats

06:33and small sea vehicles.

06:36And this is where we expect rainfalls

06:39in the next few days,

06:40especially in areas

06:42that will experience heavy rainfall.

06:44Today until tomorrow,

06:46this part of Palawan

06:48and also in Occidental Mindoro

06:51and western Visayas.

06:52So, be careful in these areas

06:55because it is possible for landslides to occur.

06:57Tomorrow,

06:58rainfalls will continue in Palawan,

07:01Mindoro, and western Visayas.

07:03This is also affected by Habagat.

07:05So, these are the rainfalls that we will experience

07:07from now until Wednesday and Thursday.

07:10This is the end of the southwest monsoon

07:12and the LPA that can be a storm.

07:14When Wednesday arrives,

07:16it will still rain in Occidental Mindoro.

07:17We also expect heavy rainfall

07:19in the areas of Maranasas, Sambales,

07:21Bataan, western Visayas,

07:23and other parts of Mimaropa,

07:25as well as Baboyan Islands,

07:27Isabela, and Apayao.

07:28So, this is based on our weather update

07:31weather advisory as of 5 a.m.

07:32We will also give an update

07:34later at 11 a.m.
