Huaning exits PAR, heads for Japan's Ryukyu Islands
Tropical Depression Huaning has exited the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) as of 5 a.m. Tuesday, PAGASA reported. In its 5 a.m. bulletin, the state weather bureau said Huaning slightly accelerated while moving north-northeastward toward the Ryukyu Islands of Japan. It was last spotted 650 kilometers east northeast of Itbayat, Batanes, with maximum sustained winds of 55 kilometers per hour (kph) near the center and gustiness of up to 70 kph. The tropical depression was moving at 10 kph. PAGASA said Huaning is unlikely to directly affect any part of the country throughout the forecast period. The weather disturbance is also not expected to influence sea conditions in Philippine coastal waters. On its current track, Huaning may pass near or over the Ryukyu Islands within the day. The tropical depression is projected to maintain its strength, though PAGASA noted that intensification into a tropical storm is still possible, albeit unlikely at this time. Despite exiting PAR, PAGASA advised the public to continue monitoring official updates, with the next advisory scheduled at 11:00 a.m. Tuesday. —Sherylin Untalan/KG, GMA Integrated News
