Multiple weather systems to bring rains, cloudy skies over parts of PH

GMA Network23-05-2025

Three weather systems are causing rains all over the country, according to PAGASA's daily weather report on Friday afternoon.
The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) will cause cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms over Mindanao, Palawan, Negros Oriental, and Siquijor.
Batanes and the Babuyan Islands may have partly cloudy skies due to the Ridge of the High Pressure Area (HPA), as the rest of the country experiences partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to the easterlies.
Possible flash floods or landslides may occur in some areas as a result of these weather conditions.
Meanwhile, light to moderate winds with slight to moderate coastal waters are expected in some parts of the country.
Temperatures will range from a minimum of 24.8 degrees Celsius to a maximum of 35.8 degrees Celsius over the next 24 hours.
Sunrise in Metro Manila will be at 5:27 a.m. on Saturday. — Jiselle Anne Casucian/ VDV, GMA Integrated News

Kanlaon Volcano had 4 volcanic quakes —PHIVOLCS

Kanlaon Volcano on Negros Island is still under Alert Level 3. PHIVOLCS/File Kanlaon Volcano on Negros Island had four volcanic earthquakes on Friday, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) said. The volcano also emitted 5,324 tonnes of sulfur dioxide in the 24-hour period from 12 a.m. Friday to 12 a.m. Saturday, PHIVOLCS said in its bulletin. Voluminous plumes rising up from the crater to 900 meters tall were observed, indicating continuous degassing. The plumes drifted south and southeast. PHIVOLCS said the volcano's edifice remains inflated. Alert Level 3 (Intensified Unrest/Magmatic Unrest) remains in effect at Kanlaon Volcano, which straddles the provinces of Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental. The six-kilometer radius from the volcano's summit should remain evacuated, PHIVOLCS said. Flying aircraft close to the volcano should not be allowed, it added. PHIVOLCS said Kanlaon Volcano poses possible hazards: sudden explosive eruption, lava flow or effusion, ashfall, pyroclastic density current (PDC), rockfall, and lahars during heavy rains. On Friday, PHIVOLCS advised residents near Kanlaon Volcano to be vigilant following social media posts of "cohesive and cement-like lahars" that may have been generated by moderate to heavy rainfall in the area. Netizens and local officials along the Buhangin River and beneath Hacienda 92 Bridge in Barangay Sag-ang and Ibid Creek in Barangay Biak-na-bato, La Castellana, Negros Occidental reported the occurrence of cohesive and cement-like lahars in their areas. The rains brought about by the Southwest Monsoon may generate lahars, muddy steamflows or muddy run-off in the rivers draining the Kanlaon Volcano edifice, particularly areas previous affected by lahars, PHIVOLCS said. "Lahars can threaten communities along the middle and lower slopes with inundation, burial and wash out," it added. "PHIVOLCS thus strongly recommends increased vigilance and readiness of communities along rivers draining southern Kanlaon. These communities and local government units are advised to continually monitor weather conditions and take pre-emptive response measures when heavy rains, the only early-warning for lahars, are expected or have begun over the upper slopes of Kanlaon Volcano, for their safety," the agency said. —KG, GMA Integrated News

Rains expected in parts of PH due to LPA

Weather bureau PAGASA said early Saturday morning that there was still a "medium" chance for the low pressure area off the Catanduanes coast to develop into a tropical depression. At 3 a.m., the LPA was located 240 kilometers east of Virac, Catanduanes, bringing cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms to the Bicol Region, Central Visayas, Eastern Visayas, Northern Mindanao, Caraga, Davao Region, Aurora, and Quezon. Metro Manila, MIMAROPA, the Ilocos Region, the rest of Central Luzon, CALABARZON, Visayas, and Mindanao will be affected by the Southwest Monsoon (Habagat). Localized thunderstorms are expected in the rest of Luzon. The whole country will experience light to moderate winds and slight to moderate coastal waters. The sun rose over Metro Manila at 5:26 a.m. Sunset is expected at 6:24 p.m. —VBL, GMA Integrated News

PHIVOLCS issues Kanlaon lahar advisory following rainfall in the area

The Philippine Institute of of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) called for vigilance among residents near Kanlaon volcano following social media posts of "cohesive and cement-like lahars" that may have generated by moderate to heavy rainfall in the area. "Based on the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) Regional Weather Advisory No. 2, the Negros Island Region has been under the effects of a Low Pressure Area (LPA) and the Southwest Monsoon," the PHIVOLCS said. "Furthermore, based on PAGASA's Heavy Rainfall Warning No. 2 #VISPRSD, moderate to heavy rainfall in the late afternoon to early evening affected portions of Kanlaon Volcano, generating channel-confined volcanic sediment flows or lahars on the southern and southwestern slopes," the agency added. The All-Weather Station of the Kanlaon Volcano Observatory in La Carlota City recorded a total of 45.5 mm of rain over a 3.5-hour period and higher rainfall volume may occurr around the summit of the volcano. The PHIVOLCS said cohesive and cement-like lahars has been reported by netizens and local officials along the Buhangin River and beneath Hacienda 92 Bridge in Barangay Sag-ang and Ibid Creek in Barangay Biak-na-bato, La Castellana, Negros Occidental. The rains brought about by the southwest monsoon may generate lahars, muddy steamflows or muddy run-off in the rivers draining the Kanlaon vocano edifice, particularly areas previous affected by lahars. PHIVOLCS warns, "Lahars can threaten communities along the middle and lower slopes with inundation, burial and wash out." "PHIVOLCS thus strongly recommends increased vigilance and readiness of communities along rivers draining southern Kanlaon. These communities and local government units are advised to continually monitor weather conditions and take pre-emptive response measures when heavy rains, the only early-warning for lahars, are expected or have begun over the upper slopes of Kanlaon Volcano, for their safety," the agency said. — BAP, GMA Integrated News
