00:02 We can see in our latest satellite images, there are still two weather systems that are affecting our country.

00:08 First is the Northeast Monsoon or Hanging Amian.

00:11 This will bring rain particularly in the Batanes and Babuyan Islands.

00:17 Meanwhile, there are also some mild rains that we can experience particularly in the Ilocos region.

00:22 This includes the cold regions of Cagayan Valley and Cordillera.

00:27 Central Luzon, Manila, and Calabarzon are also affected.

00:31 These are still affected by the Northeast Monsoon or Hanging Amian.

00:34 In the southern part of the country, besides Mindanao, we are still expecting heavy rains.

00:41 The rain and snowfall are also affected by the Easterlies or the wind that is blowing from the Pacific Ocean.

00:46 Based on our latest data, it shows that we are still not monitoring any low-pressure areas.

00:52 We still do not have any typhoons inside or outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility.

00:58 Meanwhile, because of the Amian, we have now raised the Gale Warning.

01:01 This is our forecast for the strong waves of the sea.

01:04 We expect that the waves of the sea will reach up to four meters in the Batanes,

01:10 in Cagayan, along with Babuyan Islands, and in the Ilocos Norte.

01:14 This is the tip of the Amian.

01:15 That is why we are asking our fellow countrymen to be careful,

01:18 especially the small boats and small boats,

01:22 to not sail to these islands because we expect that there will be a strong wave that will bring the Amian.

01:31 This is where we expect the weather to be in the next three days.

01:36 Based on our latest data, the Northeast Monsoon or Amian will continue to be active,

01:42 as will the Easterlies.

01:44 We can see here in our data, these green colors indicate that it will rain.

01:51 Based on this, in the next three days,

01:53 generally, the weather will still be fair in a large part of our country.

01:57 We can see here that there is a high chance of rain, especially in the eastern section,

02:02 or the northern part of Visayas and Mindanao,

02:06 which is the tip of the Easterlies.

02:09 In the next three days, until January 4, there is a small chance of a storm inside or outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility.

02:18 We will continue to update this in the next few days.

02:21 Meanwhile, for our detailed weather forecast,

02:25 we can visit the various Facebook pages of our Pag-asa Regional Services Division.

02:32 They provide data, particularly in the Thunderstorm Advisory,

02:37 Rainfall Warning, and also in the Heavy Rainfall Warning.

02:41 For the Northern Luzon, there is the Northern Luzon PRSD,

02:44 which includes Ilocos Region, Tordillera, Cagayan Valley, and Aurora.

02:49 Also, for the National Capital Region, it includes Central Luzon,

02:54 Calabarzon, and Metro Manila.

02:57 You can also visit NCR PRSD.

03:00 Meanwhile, for Southern Luzon PRSD,

03:03 it includes Romblon, Marinduque, Oriental Mindoro, Bicol Region, and Northern Samar.

03:12 For Visayas PRSD, there is Palawan,

03:15 which includes Occidental Mindoro, and the southern part of Visayas.

03:21 For Mindanao, we can visit the Mindanao Pag-asa Regional Services Division.

03:26 Again, we can see here our detailed weather forecast,

03:30 especially that it updates every three hours.
