00:00We will now call on the weather specialist, Veronica Torres. Veronica, good morning.
00:09Good morning to you and to our viewers in Unang Hirit.
00:13Where is Carina while we are talking about this?
00:17At the moment, Carina has left our Philippine area of responsibility at 6.20 in the morning.
00:30Since she left our P.A.R., what can we expect for the weather this afternoon?
00:37Although she left our P.A.R., the number one in Batanes and Habagat,
00:46we expect moderate to intense rain in the western section of the Luzon area.
00:54Rain, but far from what we saw yesterday, right?
00:58Yes. We expect moderate to heavy rain in Metro Manila, but far from what we saw yesterday.
01:07Can we expect that the sun will shine this afternoon, Carina?
01:12This afternoon, it's possible, although the chance of rain is still high.
01:18We hope that it will still rain. Although tomorrow, it will rain,
01:22it won't be Monday to Thursday rain.
01:25Ma'am, do we have data on how much rain Carina and Habagat experienced?
01:34Yes. If we look at our data, because the data for July 24 is not yet complete,
01:43because we are still waiting.
01:44That's yesterday, right?
01:46Yes. Our latest data that was completed on July 23,
01:53the rain reached Quezon City at 217.4 millimeters from July 23, 8 a.m. to the next day at 8 a.m.
02:07So that's it.
02:08So how much is that 270 millimeters in a month relative to the monthly average rainfall?
02:19If we look at the normal rainfall compared to this, let's check it first.
02:30Can we say that the rainfall in 24 hours is like one month's worth or one week's worth or something like that?
02:38Yes. In Science Garden, in July, the usual rainfall reached 493.
02:47So this is almost half of the one-day rainfall.
02:51But let's still look at the data that was collected in the past few days and yesterday,
02:58if this is equivalent to almost one month's worth of rainfall.
03:03So the one-day rainfall that Carina experienced is like more than half of our average rainfall in July.
03:14Actually, more on Enhanced Habagat,
03:18the one-day rainfall was only on July 23.
03:23But let's look at the rainfall from July 24, 8 a.m. to the next day at 8 a.m.
03:29Are we witnessing a new weather disturbance, Veronica?
03:34For now, there is none except for Carina and us who are monitoring Habagat.
03:38Welcome, Rikian, to our listeners. I hope you don't.
03:41Veronica Torres of Pag-asa, thank you very much. Good morning.
03:45Thank you also. Good morning.
