00:00Southwest Monsoon or Hangi Habagan will continue to sweep through a large portion of the Luzon and Visayas
00:06and it will continue to rain, especially in the western and northern portions of our country.
00:11Meanwhile, there is a low-pressure area in the north coast of the northern Luzon, here in the northern Philippine Sea.
00:19And as of 3 in the morning, it has seen more than 700 kilometers in the east coast of Batanes.
00:24Based on our analysis, the chance of a low-pressure area for today is low.
00:29However, we still expect that the probability of a tropical depression will increase over this weekend.
00:37Based on our analysis, the weather disturbance in our country, Taiwan, will continue to sweep through.
00:43And we are not ignoring the chance of a tropical depression.
00:47We will call it a low-pressure area.
00:50This low-pressure area means that the chance of a landfall will be low or it will affect our country.
00:58So, we will continue to monitor.
01:02For today, we still expect a high chance of rain in the western section of the Luzon,
01:06including Zambales, Bataan, and Ilocos region, because it is still in the Southwest Monsoon or Habagat.
01:12Sometimes, we will have heavy rainfall, especially in Zambales and Bataan,
01:16so be careful of flooding and landslides.
01:20In the remaining part of the Luzon, including Metro Manila,
01:23we still expect a cloudy sky with scattered rain and thunderstorms.
01:29So, make sure to bring an umbrella if necessary.
01:32The chance of rain is also high in Maycaguayan Valley and Cordillera Administrative Region,
01:37especially in the afternoon and evening.
01:40Our temperature in Metro Manila is from 25 to 30 degrees Celsius.
01:47For our countrymen in Palawan and Samar Provinces,
01:51we still expect a cloudy sky with scattered rain and thunderstorms because it is still in the Southwest Monsoon.
01:58So, be careful of flooding and landslides.
02:01In the remaining part of Visayas, we still expect fair weather conditions
02:05or a cloudy sky with scattered rain.
02:10The chance of rain is high in Patimpanay Island and Negros Occidental.
02:15Our temperature in Metro Cebu is from 26 to 31 degrees Celsius.
02:19For our countrymen in the majority of Mindanao,
02:22we still expect a cloudy sky or fair weather conditions from morning to afternoon.
02:27Afternoon will be hot and windy.
02:30In the afternoon and evening, the chance of rain is still high in Northern Mindanao and Caraga Region
02:37as well as in Davao Region.
02:39Our temperature in Metro Davao is from 25 to 32 degrees Celsius.
02:45As of now, we have removed the gale warning over the western seaboards of Luzon.
02:49However, moderate to rough seas or up to 3.5 meters high waves will continue.
02:55This is still dangerous for small sea vessels.
02:58In the remaining parts of our country,
03:00slight to moderate seas or up to 2.5 meters in the eastern part of our country
03:05will continue until the waves reach the right height in the remaining parts of our country.
03:12For our three-day weather forecast,
03:14we still expect occasional rains in the northern part of Luzon
03:19due to the southwest monsoon and possible trough of the low-pressure area in the east of Batanes.
03:25We expect the highest chance of rain in Batanes,
03:28Babuyan Islands, Ilocos Region, Zambales, and Bataan.
03:32While we still recommend you to bring an umbrella,
03:36the majority of Luzon, including Cordillera Region, Cagayan Valley,
03:40the remaining part of Central Luzon, Metro Manila, the majority of Calabasas, and Mimaropa
03:45still have a high chance of rain and snowfall, especially in the afternoon and evening.
03:52And for the remaining part of the country, Visayas and Mindanao,
03:55over this weekend, we still expect fair weather conditions.
03:58So there will be no problem if we have plans or travel plans over this weekend
04:04While Sunday to Monday arrives,
04:06we still expect scattered rain and thunderstorms in Batanes,
04:09Babuyan Islands, Ilocos Region, Zambales, and Bataan.
04:12While the remaining part of the country, including Metro Manila,
04:16from Sunday to Monday, our weather conditions will improve
