00:00This is the latest update for Super Typhoon Pepito.
00:06Earlier this afternoon, Pepito landed in Dipakulaw, Aurora.
00:13It is currently in the vicinity of Tipunan, Quirino.
00:18It is carrying a strong wind of 185 kmph and a torrent of up to 305 kmph.
00:26It is moving in the direction of Hilagang, Kanluran in a speed of 25 kmph.
00:31We can see in our satellite image that a large part of Luzon is affected by Super Typhoon Pepito.
00:39That is why we still have areas under stormy weather conditions or even rains with gusty winds.
00:46This is the radar image of the landfall of Pepito in May, Aurora.
00:56And because of Super Typhoon Pepito, we have a high signal number 5 in the central portion of Aurora,
01:06southern portion of Quirino and southern portion of Nueva Vizcaya.
01:11Meanwhile, signal number 4 in the southern part of Aurora, southern part of Nueva Vizcaya,
01:20southern portion of Ilocos Sur, La Union, eastern portion of Pangasinan and northern portion of Nueva Vizcaya.
01:32Signal number 3 in the southern part of Isabela, southern part of Ilocos Sur,
01:39mountain province, southern portion of Calinga, southern portion of Abra,
01:44southern part of Ilocos Sur, southern part of Pangasinan, northern and eastern portion of Tarlac,
01:51northern portion of Bulacan, northern portion of Quezon, also known as Polilio Island.
01:58Meanwhile, signal number 2 in the southern part of Isabela, southwestern portion of mainland Cagayan,
02:06southern portion of Apayau, southern portion of Abra, Ilocos Norte, Zambales, northern portion of Bataan,
02:15metro Manila, Rizal, northeastern portion of Laguna and central portion of Quezon.
02:23Signal number 1 in the southern part of mainland Cagayan, southern part of Apayau, southern part of Bataan,
02:31southern part of Laguna, Batangas, southern part of Quezon, northern portion of Occidental Mindoro,
02:39Lubang Islands, northern portion of Oriental Mindoro, northwestern portion of Romblon, Marinduque,
02:47Camarines Norte and northern portion of Camarines Sur.
02:53This is the latest track that we are monitoring, Super Typhoon Pepito.
02:59So we are expecting that it will cross the northern portion of Central Luzon
03:05and will come out of the landmass of mainland Luzon tonight or tomorrow morning.
03:10So we can see that it is possible that this will become a typhoon category,
03:15Super Typhoon Pepito coming out of the landmass of Luzon.
03:20And it is also possible that Pepito will come out of our Philippine Area of Responsibility by tomorrow morning or noon.
03:29We also released a weather advisory on Pepito,
03:33where it is possible that there will be more than 200 mm of rain or intense to torrential rains in Aurora,
03:40Quirino, Nueva Vizcaya, Ifugao and Pangasinan.
03:43So what are we expecting when it is intense to torrential rains?
03:47So widespread incidents of severe flooding and landslide are expected.
03:52Heavy to intense rains, 100 to 200 mm of rain in Isabela, Calinga, Mountain Province,
03:58Abra, La Union, Benguet, Nueva Ecija, Zambales, Bulacan, here in Rizal and also in Quezon.
04:07If heavy to intense to torrential rains, numerous flooding events likely,
04:11especially in urbanized, low-lying or near rivers.
04:15Landslide likely in moderate to heavy susceptible areas or highly susceptible areas.
04:21While moderate to heavy, 50 to 100 mm of rain, we expect in Ilocos Sur, Tarlac, Pampanga, Bataan, Metro Manila and Laguna.
04:33So if it is moderate to heavy, 50 to 100 mm of rain, localized flooding is possible,
04:39mainly in areas that are urbanized, low-lying or near rivers and landslide in highly susceptible areas.
04:49We also have a storm surge warning.
04:52We expect more than 3 meters in the northern and central portion of Aurora and Isabela.
05:02And we expect 2.1 to 3 meters in the southern part of Aurora, in some parts of Cagayan, in Ilocos Norte,
05:11in Ilocos Sur, La Union, Pangasinan and Zambales.
05:161 to 2 meters in NCR 1st, 3rd and 4th District, in Pangasinan, Pampanga, Bataan, Cavite, Batangas, Bulacan, Quezon, Marinduque,
05:28in Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, Catanduanes and Albay.
05:35We also have a gale warning here in the eastern coast of Cagayan, Isabela, Aurora,
05:42northern coast of Quezon, Apolillo Islands, northern coast of Camarines Norte, Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur,
05:49in La Union, Pangasinan and the northern coast of Zambales.
05:53So if possible, don't go too far in those areas because it will be flooded up to the sea level.
06:00And that's the latest from Super Typhoon Pepito, Veronica Torres, Nagulat.
