00:12 Good morning to all of us.

00:20 This is the update on the Tropical Storm Egay.

00:24 This is the last storm that is 685 km away from the coast of Virac, Catanduanes.

00:31 This is a strong storm and now has a maximum sustained wind of 75 km/h near the center and north,

00:40 which is up to 90 km/h.

00:43 Currently, it is moving in the direction of Catanduanes at a speed of 15 km/h.

00:49 We expect that Egay will bring 50 to 100 mm of rain on Monday in the Catanduanes area.

00:58 This is also Egay, it is possible that the southwest monsoon will be enhanced or strong.

01:03 That's why we expect for tomorrow, occasional rains, possibly in the western Visayas and occidental Pitoros.

01:10 Also, we did not see a rise in tropical cyclone wind signal in any part of our country.

01:16 But it is possible that we will see a rise in the Picol region and also in the eastern Visayas.

01:22 We expect that Egay will be strong and it can intensify into a severe tropical storm category in the next 12 hours.

01:31 We expect that throughout the forecast period, Egay can still be strong.

01:37 The strongest wind speed is possible Tuesday or Wednesday and this is in the super typhoon category.

01:46 While in the Philippine Sea, it needs extreme northern monsoon.

01:51 And that is the latest from the Weather Forecasting Center, Veronica Torres.
