Transcript
00:00Good morning, Kapuso. We are still here in Atok, Benguet.
00:10At this time of the day, the wind is cold because of the cold weather.
00:15Kapuso, because of the cold weather,
00:18last week, the plants that we love to grow here,
00:21like these cabbages, were severely affected by the wind or frost.
00:26As you can see here, Kapuso, these cabbages don't have frost.
00:31The wind happens because of the cold moisture.
00:34It freezes, that's why the ice crystals are falling.
00:37And when the plants that we love to grow become ice crystals,
00:42there will be no visas, no frost, and their plants will no longer be usable.
00:46Now, good morning, Kapuso.
00:47Because of that, we will talk about the local plants that we will grow
00:50from here in Atok, Benguet, which is Sir Arnold.
00:53Sir Arnold, good morning.
00:54Good morning, Sir.
00:55Sir, good morning. Sir, when did you experience this wind?
00:59Sir, around mid-January.
01:03Mid-January. Is this your first time experiencing this wind?
01:06Yes, Sir.
01:07What is the effect of the wind on your plants?
01:10Sir, there are a lot of things that are rotting here in our plants, like vegetables.
01:16If that's the case, for example, they were hit by the wind,
01:19what can you do to save them? Will you save them or not?
01:23None, Sir.
01:24None. So, if the wind hits them, the roots will be gone.
01:28But there are some that can survive, as long as the wind is not directly hitting them.
01:34What are the plants that you grow here?
01:36Cabbage, potatoes, things like that.
01:38What is the most affected by your plants?
01:41When it comes to frost, the potatoes are really affected because their leaves are soft.
01:46Is the damage already big since you experienced the wind?
01:49Not really, Sir, because the wind that we have now is already late.
01:54Unlike last year, it was only early December when the wind picked up until mid-February.
02:05Sir, what if the wind continues to blow, and the next season comes and the wind picks up again?
02:10What adjustments can you make for your plants?
02:14Nothing, Sir, because we just have to wait for the wind to survive.
02:21Sir, thank you very much.
02:22Thank you, Sir.
02:23Thank you, Sir. Good luck with your harvest.
02:25Thank you, Sir.
02:26Mga Kapuso, let's update about the weather.
02:29Good news, because we don't have a low-pressure area or typhoon in five parts of our country.
02:36Mga Kapuso, according to the media, this is affecting Northern and Central Luzon,
02:40while easterly in 11 parts of our country, according to Pagasa this morning.
02:45Light to moderate rain is possible in some parts of Northern and Central Luzon and Quezon Province.
02:49This is based on the rainfall forecast of Metro Weather.
02:52By the end of the day, some parts of the country, particularly Mindanao,
02:57will experience a low chance of rain in Metro Manila.
03:00Remember, Mga Kapuso, stay safe and stay updated.
03:04I'm Anzu Perkyara, your first hit it weather presenter.
03:07Know the weather before you go.
03:09Always wear a mask.
