Severe Tropical Storm Podul to enter PAR soon as Gorio —PAGASA

Severe Tropical Storm Podul slightly weakened as it continued to move west and is expected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility in the early hours of Monday, PAGASA said. In its Tropical Cyclone Advisory released 11 p.m. on Sunday, the state weather bureau said Podul was last seen 1,420 kilometers east of extreme Northern Luzon, with maximum sustained winds of 100 kilometers per hour near the center, gustiness of 125 kilometers per hour, and central pressure of 990 hPa. Podul is expected to enter the PAR in the next three hours, and will be named 'Gorio' once it does. It is expected to make landfall over the northeastern coast of Taiwan on Wednesday. 'There is large uncertainty in the projected track and intensity of PODUL from Monday through the end of the forecast period since any northward or southward shift in the track forecast will significantly change the intensity forecast,' PAGASA said. Moving forward, PAGASA expects cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms in the Ilocos Region, Batanes, and the Babuyan Islands, due to the southwest monsoon or Habagat. Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms are also expected in Metro Manila, Zambales, Bataan, Cavite, Batangas, Occidental Mindoro, and Palawan. Meanwhile, localized thunderstorms are seen to bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms to the rest of the country. — Jon Viktor D.

Habagat to bring rains over Luzon; Podul to enter PAR Sunday or Monday

The Southwest Monsoon (Habagat) is affecting the western section of Luzon on Sunday and will bring rains over some areas, PAGASA said. Severe Tropical Storm Podul meanwhile is expected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) on Sunday night or early Monday morning. The Ilocos Region, Batanes, and Babuyan Islands will have cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms due to the monsoon. Moderate to at times heavy rains may possibly result in flash floods or landslides. Metro Manila, Zambales, Bataan, Cavite, Batangas, Occidental Mindoro, and Palawan may expect partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to the Habagat. During severe thunderstorms, flash floods or landslides may occur. The rest of the country meanwhile will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to localized thunderstorms. Flash floods or landslides may possibly occur during severe thunderstorms. Coastal areas will be slight to moderate throughout the whole country. Sunrise was at 5:41 a.m. while sunset will be at 6:22 p.m. Podul Severe Tropical Storm Podul, meanwhile, was located at 3 a.m. at 1,875 km east of Extreme Northern Luzon, which is outside PAR. It has maximum sustained winds of 110 km/h near the center and gustiness of up to 135 km/h. Podul is moving westward at 15 km/h. "Posibleng pumasok ng PAR ito mamayang gabi o bukas ng madaling araw," DOST-PAGASA weather specialist Obet Badrina said in the public weather forecast. ([Podul] may possibly enter PAR tonight or tomorrow early morning.) Once it enters PAR, it will be called Gorio. Based on the forecast track, Podul may possibly stay in the northeastern portion of PAR and make landfall in Taiwan on Wednesday before exiting PAR, Badrina said. "Maliit ang tsansang magkaroon ito ng direkta epekto sa bansa," he said. (It has a low chance of having a direct effect on the country.) However, if Podul changes track and goes southward, PAGASA may possibly raise a Tropical Cyclone Warning Signal over Batanes, Badrina said. "Sa ngayon hindi natin nakikita na masyado nitong palalakasin ang Habagat (For now, we don't see that it will affect the Habagat much)," he added. "Kaya in general po, makikita pa rin natin 'yung mga generally fair weather sa malaking bahagi ng bansa sa mga susunod na araw," Badrina added. (So in general, we will see generally fair weather in most parts of the country in the next few days.) —KG, GMA Integrated News
