00:00Good morning to all. Here is our update on the Kiribbean storm.
00:07The Kiribbean storm is still in the sea near Mindanao.
00:13At present, the distance of the center of the Kiribbean storm is 230 km east of Davao City
00:21or 205 km east of Tagaon City, Davao del Norte.
00:27The strength of the wind near the center of the storm is still 45 km per hour
00:35while the wind speed is still 55 km per hour.
00:41We are still expecting that the storm will move in the direction of Hilagang-Hilagang-Silangan
00:47at a speed of 10 km per hour.
00:50You will notice that a large part of Visayas and Mindanao is experiencing a cloudy sky
00:57and there are heavy rains.
00:59That is the end of the storm and the extension of the storm and the shear line.
01:07So, we would like to remind our countrymen especially in Bicol Region, Bombay-Visayas and Mindanao
01:15that we should continue to be careful because there is still a chance of landslide or flash flood
01:21due to heavy rains and we are still expecting heavy rains.
01:31We are still under Tropica Second Windsignal No. 1, Davao-Oriental.
01:37So, expect heavy rains and strong winds.
01:44This is our estimate of the storm's movement and its strength.
01:52In the next 24 hours, we are expecting that the storm will weaken and become a low-pressure area.
02:02But we are expecting that it will become a storm again.
02:07It is apt to pass through Mindanao until it reaches the West Philippine Sea.
02:13So, we will continue to monitor the development of the storm now and in the coming days.
02:23Even if we do not have a Gale Warning, we will still be careful because the winds are still strong
02:30and the shear line and the storm will have an effect.
02:33So, even if we do not have a Gale Warning, we will still be careful
02:38to those who are planning to cross our seas.
