00:00 The new typhoon that could enter the Philippine area of responsibility this weekend is still strong.
00:07 We will know the update from the weather specialist, Veronica Torres.
00:12 Good afternoon.
00:16 Good afternoon to you too, Ms. Angelique, and to our viewers.
00:20 Do you want to buy on PTV4?
00:22 Currently, the Southwest Monsoon or Hanging Habagat is affecting Luzon and Visayas.
00:28 And because of this, we expect the monsoon rains,
00:32 where we have expectations of moderate to heavy rains in the Ilocos region,
00:35 Zambales, Bataan, Occidental Mindoro, Northern Palawan, Calamian and Cuyo Island.
00:42 Occasional rain, the Southwest Monsoon is still heavy,
00:45 which we expect in Metro Manila, Cordillera Administrative Region, Calabarzon,
00:50 the cold part of Central Luzon and the cold part of Mimaropa.
00:55 In Cagayan Valley and Western Visayas,
00:58 we expect heavy rains, lightning and thunder because of the Hanging Habagat.
01:04 In the cold part of our country, a party cloudy to cloudy skies,
01:08 we still have chances of localizing thunderstorms.
01:11 We also have a monitoring of the typhoon that is outside the Philippine area of responsibility.
01:18 This is a typhoon with an international name, it is in the tropical storm category.
01:25 Its center is Huling na Mataan, which is located at 1345 km east of Eastern Visayas.
01:34 It is exposed to strong winds of 65 km/h near the center and a gust of 80 km/h.
01:41 It is moving north-northwest at a speed of 25 km/h.
01:47 It is possible that it will enter the Philippine area of responsibility either tomorrow late evening or Sunday morning.
01:54 If it enters, we can see that it is only here in the northeastern boundary of our park
02:01 and it can also come out immediately, possibly around Monday.
02:06 And that is the latest from the Weather Forecasting Center, Veronica Torres.
02:11 Yes, Ma'am Veronica, I have one additional question.
02:15 Earlier this morning, we experienced heavy rain in some parts of the country.
02:21 What is the reason for this?
02:23 Yes, the rain in some parts of our country is because of the Southwest Monsoon or Hanging Habagat.
02:30 Mostly, the rain is stronger here in the Canlurang part, particularly in Ilocos, Ilocos Region, Zambales, Bataan,
02:37 Occidental Mindoro, Northern Palawan, and also in Calamian and Cuyo Island.
02:43 Is it possible that the track of this tropical storm, Canoon, will go down and will it affect the Habagat if it is a bit far from the mainland?
02:55 Yes, this Canoon, because it has been a bit long that it will enter our area of responsibility,
03:04 it is still possible that it will go down but based on our cone of probability, it is still far from our landmass of the Philippines.
03:15 But it is still possible that the Habagat will be enhanced even if it is far as early as tomorrow.
03:21 Okay, and for our viewers to understand, although traditionally, there are always storms,
03:28 is this at a normal level now and is this related to the entrance or the beginning of El Niño?
03:37 Yes, this number of storms, actually the forecast of our colleagues in the Climatological Department,
03:45 is possible that 2 to 4 storms can enter our area of responsibility.
03:53 But we are still at a normal level now. And if this is related to El Niño,
03:58 although the weather forecast declared the effect that we are feeling after a few weeks, days or months,
04:08 then if we see that this has a direct effect, if we will investigate more,
04:14 then maybe after a while, we will check if this is related to the El Niño phenomenon.
04:19 All right. Thank you very much. For Gazar Weather Specialist, Veronica Torres. Good afternoon.
