Transcript
00:00And how are we going to set the time? We will interview live Obet Madrina, weather specialist from Pagasa. Sir Obet, good morning.
00:09Good morning, sir Ivan. Good morning to all of our viewers.
00:13The question of our hearts is, will it rain on the last day of 2024, our meeting later?
00:20It is a big place in our country where the sky will be cloudy and there is a big chance of rain, sir Ivan.
00:26Especially in Palawan, Visayas, and Mindanao.
00:30In particular, the eastern section of Visayas and Mindanao, as well as some parts of the Bicol region.
00:36So their meeting of the new year will be a bit cloudy later,
00:40because of the intertropical convergence zone or ITCZ.
00:44There is also a big chance of rain on the parts of Cagayan, Batanes, and Apayaw because of the shear line.
00:50And you can expect that there will be heavy rains.
00:57Meanwhile, here in Manila and the southern part of Luzon, there is a small chance of rain.
01:03We will see more cloudy days here in the northern part of our country.
01:07But it is possible that later in the afternoon, there will be isolated rains.
01:13In particular, here in Manila and other provinces, sir Ivan.
01:18Sir Robert, it's been a week. Our Christmas was rained.
01:21The new year will continue to rain.
01:23Until when will this shear line and ITCZ continue to rain on us?
01:28Sir Ivan, our ITCZ, possibly, will have less effect on Palawan, Visayas, and Mindanao in the next few days.
01:35But the shear line, we expect that it will be eroded and will have an effect on a large part of the eastern section of Luzon.
01:43That's the area of Cagayan Valley, Aurora, Quezon.
01:46Especially for our countrymen who will return here, especially here in Manila,
01:51we expect that there will be a large chance of rain on Thursday until the weekend.
01:55So it's possible that here in Manila, when Thursday comes towards the weekend, the sky will be cloudy, sir Ivan.
02:01Is there a formation? Are we seeing bad weather outside the PAR that could be a good storm in 2025?
02:10So the good news for now is that we are not yet monitoring low-pressure areas, sir Ivan,
02:15inside and outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility.
02:19So in total, we had 18 storms this year, 2024.
02:24For now, we are not yet monitoring new storms in the coming year.
02:28Sir Robert, thank you very much for your hope. Happy New Year to you. Thank you.
02:33Thank you. Happy New Year.
02:35We talked to Obet Madrina, weather specialist from Pagasa.
