The state weather bureau on Saturday, Aug. 26, hoisted tropical cyclone wind signal (TCWS) No. 2 in northeastern portion of Isabela and extreme northeastern portion of mainland Cagayan and forecasted that the typhoon-enhanced southwest monsoon or "habagat" will bring rains over the areas of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.

In its 5 a.m. bulletin, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) noted that "the southwest monsoon enhanced by 'Goring' will bring occasional or monsoon rains over the western portions of Central Luzon, Southern Luzon, and Visayas over the next three day[s]."

00:39 Cagayan Valley, Cordillera Region, and Ilocos Region,
00:42 where the weather is cloudy and rainy and windy today.
00:46 While we are monitoring a low-pressure area
00:49 outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility.
00:52 Again, more than 1,900 kilometers of the northern zone
00:57 and based on our analysis,
00:59 this low-pressure area will remain far from our territory
01:02 and will not be directly affected by our country.
01:07 Based on our latest track,
01:09 we expect that within the next 24 hours or today,
01:12 the storm will continue to move eastward
01:15 and will move to the coast of Cagayan and Isabela.
01:18 Based on our latest track,
01:20 the storm has widened to around 450 kilometers in diameter
01:24 or its total area.
01:26 This means that the wind is blowing
01:29 a large part of Cagayan, Batanes, and Eastern Isabela
01:33 in the next few hours.
01:35 We also have associated with the color red circle,
01:38 these are the three and four storms
01:41 that have the strongest wind due to the storm.
01:44 When it arrives tomorrow,
01:46 we expect that the storm will move a little further.
01:49 This is the storm Goring
01:51 and it is possible that it will become a super typhoon
01:53 when it arrives at night.
01:55 Then we expect that it will move northward
01:59 and will move when it arrives on Monday
02:03 to the northeast and then northward.
02:05 Then when it arrives on Monday and Tuesday,
02:07 it will move northwest and will move faster.
02:10 Generally, a storm moves slowly when it moves in a direction.
02:15 But then knowing that this storm will move northwest
02:19 and will move faster while it is heading to Taiwan
02:22 when it arrives on Wednesday.
02:24 One of the factors why we have a looping
02:27 is due to the high pressure area
02:29 around mainland China.
02:32 When it arrives today and tomorrow,
02:34 the high pressure area is strong
02:36 that's why a storm moves down.
02:38 But knowing that when it arrives on Monday and Tuesday,
02:41 the high pressure area will be weakened here.
02:43 There will be a way for the storm Goring
02:46 to move up and go straight to mainland China.
02:50 At present, the Tropical Cylon Wind Signal No. 2
02:54 is high in two places.
02:55 Here in the extreme northeastern portion of mainland Cagayan
02:59 in the province of Santa Ana and Gonzaga
03:02 and in the province of Isabela
03:04 in the province of Andivilacan, Palanan and Makonakon.
03:07 So in the places we mentioned,
03:09 within 24 hours,
03:10 the wind will blow strongly
03:12 and it may cause damage to crops,
03:16 small trees,
03:18 and damage to the weak structure
03:21 in the province of Pawin or Kahoy.
03:24 We have the Tropical Cylon Wind Signal No. 1
03:27 here in Batanes, Babuyan Islands,
03:29 eastern portion of mainland Cagayan,
03:31 eastern portion of Isabela,
03:33 and in the northern portion of Aurora
03:36 where the wind will blow for the next 24 hours.
03:39 And while the storm Goring continues to move eastward,
03:43 within the next 48 hours,
03:45 it is still possible for us to have a Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal
03:48 in a large part of Cagayan Valley and Aurora Province.
03:51 In terms of heavy rainfall,
03:55 today and tomorrow,
03:57 we expect the strongest rain in the eastern portion of Cagayan.
04:01 So it is possible for us to have heavy rainfall warnings there.
04:04 Be careful of possible floods or landslides.
04:07 We also have 50 to 100 mm of light to moderate
04:11 with at times heavy rains
04:13 here in Babuyan Islands,
04:14 the remaining portion of mainland Cagayan,
04:17 eastern Isabela,
04:18 northern Apayaw,
04:19 Abra,
04:20 Ilocos Norte,
04:21 Ilocos Sur,
04:22 and northern Aurora.
04:23 So be careful of possible heavy rainfalls over this weekend
04:27 that could cause floods or landslides.
04:30 Meanwhile, the Habagat or Southwest Monsoon,
04:32 which is still being strengthened by the storm Goring,
04:35 so we expect rainfalls in places far away from the storm.
04:39 If it reaches tomorrow or today,
04:41 we expect the strongest rainfalls in Zambales, Bataan, and Occidental Mindoro.
04:46 Light to moderate with at times heavy rains.
04:49 If it reaches tomorrow or Monday, we expect rainfalls in Zambales, Bataan, and Occidental Mindoro.
04:55 Then, the rainfalls are also affected by the strong rains in Cavite, Batangas,
05:01 a large portion of Palawan, and western Visayas.
05:04 So be careful of possible floods or landslides
05:07 and stay tuned for updates regarding rainfall advisories and heavy rainfall warnings.
05:13 When it comes to strong winds,
05:16 gusty conditions are possible in many places in our country.
05:19 It's the effect of the Southwest Monsoon.
05:22 The affected gusty conditions are Aurora, Bataan, Metro Manila, Calabarzon,
05:27 Mimaropa, and Bicol Region today.
05:30 If it reaches tomorrow and Monday,
05:32 a large portion of Aurora, Bataan, NCR, Calabarzon,
05:37 Mimaropa, and Bicol Region will experience gusty conditions,
05:40 plus almost the whole of Visayas and Zamboanga Peninsula
05:43 and the provinces of Dinagat Islands and Kamiguin.
05:46 We repeat, this is because of the coastal areas and those in the mountains are affected by the strong winds.
05:53 We also have a gale warning effect of strong winds.
06:00 When the wind is strong, the waves are high.
06:02 So, it's possible that the waves are up to 4.5 meters or at least one and a half floor of a house.
06:08 This is a warning for the provinces of Batanes, Cagayan, including Baboyan Islands, Isabela, and Aurora.
06:14 So, it means that if we have a gale warning,
06:16 it's possible that there will be sea travel suspensions.
06:18 But knowing that these places also have tropical cyclone wind signals,
06:23 most likely, the sea travel will be suspended in any type of sea vehicle.
06:28 And in the coming days, it's possible that there will be more gale warnings.
06:33 In addition, the southern Luzon, Quezon Province, and Bicol Region,
06:38 it's possible that there will be suspensions for small sea vessels.
06:41 And in some places in the southern Luzon and the West Philippine Sea,
06:46 it's possible that there will be high waves
06:49 knowing that this gale is strengthening the southwest monsoon.
06:53 We repeat, this is the official track of hope.
06:58 There will be a looping track for this gale within four days.
07:03 So, until Tuesday, the gale will be in general counterclockwise.
07:07 And from Tuesday to Thursday, it will move faster to the northwestward in Taiwan.
07:14 And it's possible that the Philippine Area of Responsibility will be released by Thursday night.
07:19 By tomorrow, there's a high chance that this will be a super typhoon or a very strong gale.
07:25 But we expect that it will be further away from our land
07:29 compared to now where it's in the typhoon category.
07:32 Aside from the Goring Typhoon and the low-pressure area weather disturbances,
07:39 the most thing we will monitor is the Habagat or southwest monsoon in many areas of the country.
07:44 So, it will continue to strengthen and it will bring rains to a large part of our country.
07:50 The most affected areas will be the Kagayan Valley,
07:55 the eastern portion of Kagayan, Isabela, stormy weather,
07:59 Batanes, rest of Kagayan, rest of Isabela, and northern portion of Aurora.
08:04 We will experience rains with gusty winds today due to the Goring Typhoon.
08:08 The rest of Kagayan Valley, Cordillera Region, Ilocos Region, Central Zone, NCR, Calabar Zone, and Mimaropa.
08:15 We expect that the weather will be cloudy for almost the whole day and it will bring heavy rains and thunderstorms
08:21 like the southwest monsoon.
08:24 While in Bicol Region, the sky is partly cloudy and sometimes cloudy.
08:28 The chance of heavy rains is also high due to the Habagat.
08:32 Today, we expect that the sky is partly cloudy and sometimes cloudy in the whole of Capizayaan.
08:38 So, the chance of rains is low in some areas.
08:41 But here in Western Visayas, the chance of thunderstorms is high when the sun sets.
08:46 In Mindanao, it will not be raining today but we expect that the sky will be partly cloudy
08:52 and the chance of localized thunderstorms or heavy rains plus the effect of southwest monsoon
08:59 over Zamboanga Peninsula, here in Bangsamoro Region, and over northern Mindanao, especially in Bukidnon.
09:05 The chance of severe thunderstorms is high.
09:09 For the next three days over here in Metro Manila,
09:11 the weather forecast will be cloudy if the house will be exposed due to the effect of the Habagat.
09:15 The chance of heavy rains will be high.
09:17 Then, Monday and Tuesday, the sky will be partly cloudy or mostly cloudy skies.
09:21 We will also have scattered rain and thunderstorms.
09:24 So, be careful with the rains.
09:26 To our fellowmen and women who are walking in Baguio City,
09:30 unfortunately, the weather will be gloomy and rainy.
09:33 Tomorrow and the days to come, we expect heavy rains and thunderstorms in southwest monsoon.
09:39 Be careful with the possible landslides, not only here in Baguio,
09:43 but also in the Bicol Region where there are many hills.
09:47 To our fellowmen and women in Cabiculan,
09:50 for the next three days, the Habagat or southwest monsoon will be affected.
09:54 Most of Cabiculan will be affected.
09:56 We will also expect light to moderate with the times heavy rains.
09:59 So, if the house will be exposed, bring an umbrella.
10:03 Expect gusty conditions and high tides.
10:06 To our fellowmen and women in Cabizayaan,
10:09 by tomorrow in Metro Cebu, the sky will be partly cloudy or mostly cloudy skies.
10:13 The chance of rain will be high in the afternoon and night.
10:15 Then, when Monday and Tuesday will come,
10:17 the sky will be mostly cloudy skies and we expect scattered rain and thunderstorms.
10:21 So, be careful with the rains or landslides.
10:25 Lastly, to our fellowmen in Metro Davao and the entire Davao Region,
10:29 there will be no direct effect from the heavy rains.
10:32 But we will still expect heavy rains,
10:34 localized thunderstorms only that have nothing to do with the typhoon,
10:37 starting in the afternoon until the early morning.
10:40 But for the rest of the day, partly cloudy skies.
10:42 The sun will rise at 5.44 a.m. and set at 6.14 p.m.
10:48 Thank you.
