00:00We have on the line Veronica Torres, weather specialist from Pag-asa. Good morning Veronica.

00:08Good morning also to you and to our listeners.

00:12Can you say that the rain that Christine poured is record-breaking?

00:16Yes, the rain that Christine poured is record-breaking.

00:22It's a bit high.

00:24If we look at different places, the highest October 22 rainfall in Maydaid,

00:31followed by Legazpi, Hubansor, Sugon, Mulanay, Quezon, and Veracat, Anduanes.

00:36The rainfall in Maydaid is very high.

00:39We got more than 500 millimeters of rain.

00:44So that's one of the most rainfall that was poured in one storm?

00:49Yes. We can see that a lot of rain was poured, especially in the northern part of Luzon, Visayas.

00:58Veronica, Christine is comparing it to Ondoy.

01:01Yes.

01:04Is it correct? Should we compare it?

01:08Yes. Because Ondoy happened during the low season.

01:13Habagat was a component of why the rainfall was so high.

01:19Christine happened during the transition period from Habagat to Amihan season.

01:28One of the factors why the rainfall was so high was because the track was lower,

01:35so it moved to the southwest and northwest, where it coincided with the eastern part of our country.

01:43Yes. From the rainfall to this moment, Christine is still under severe tropical storm.

01:50Should we expect it to weaken in the next few hours?

01:53Yes. We can see that while the landmass of our country is being extended, especially in the northern part of Luzon,

02:01it is possible that it will weaken, but it will still remain in the severe tropical storm category.

02:07Once the landmass is extended, it is possible that it will accumulate again.

02:14We are not removing that possibility.

02:16Until when?

02:18Where else can we expect the Philippine Area of Responsibility, Christine, by Friday?

02:24Friday. Are we expected to see a new low-pressure area?

02:29For now, we are monitoring a low-pressure area outside of our Philippine Area of Responsibility.

02:36Wow. When is that?

02:39For now, our concentration is on Christine, but we are monitoring it.

02:46If we see that it is possible for it to become a storm, we will immediately issue an update.

02:51Okay. Thank you very much. Be careful.
