Improved “habagat” to dampen areas of PH in the upcoming three days

According to the weather agency, the southwest monsoon (habagat), boosted by Typhoon Betty, will dampen numerous regions of the nation over the next three days.

In a public briefing, Esperanza Cayanan, the official in charge of the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), stated that severe rainfall is not anticipated.

“However, beginning today and especially tomorrow, the rain will be experienced throughout the western portions of the Visayas and Mimaropa and Southern Luzon. She said that Metro Manila and even the western part of Central Luzon may get light rainfall by Wednesday.

The intensified southwest monsoon is expected to bring significant rainfall over Occidental Mindoro and Antique today through Wednesday, according to a PAGASA statement released at 11 a.m.

Also expected to see severe rainfall on Wednesday and Thursday are Occidental Mindoro, Antique, the northwest of Aklan, the western half of Romblon, and the Calamian Islands.

Flooding and landslides brought on by rain are probable, particularly in regions vulnerable to these dangers and in areas that have recently experienced a lot of rainfall.

According to Cayanan, Betty is anticipated to leave the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) on Friday.

It is almost immobile and moving slowly. She said it might stay longer in the northeastern part of Basco, Batanes.

Betty was last located 470 km or 475 km east of Aparri, Cagayan, or Calayan, Cagayan. Betty had maximum sustained winds of 155 kph around the center with gustiness of up to 190 kph.

It is traveling 15 kph in the northwest. Gale-force winds are still expected to have minor to moderate effects across Batanes and the northeastern region of Cagayan (Santa Ana, Gonzaga), which includes the Babuyan Islands, where Signal No. 2 is raised.

Strong breeze to near gale strength winds will prevail over areas where Signal No. 1 is hoisted: the rest of mainland Cagayan, Isabela, Apayao, Ilocos Norte, Abra, Kalinga, Mountain Province, Ifugao, the northern and central portions of Aurora (Dilasag, Casiguran, Dinalungan, Dipaculao, Baler), Quirino, the northeastern portion of Nueva Vizcaya (Kasibu, Quezon, Solano, Bagabag, Diadi, Villaverde, Bayombong, Ambaguio), the northern portion of Catanduanes (Caramoran, Viga, Gigmoto, Panganiban, Bagamanoc, Pandan), the northeastern portion of Camarines Sur (Caramoan, Garchitorena, Lagonoy, Tinambac, Siruma), Pollilo Islands, the northern portion of Camarines Norte (Vinzons, Paracale, Jose Panganiban, Capalonga, Talisay, Daet, Mercedes, Basud) and the northern and central portions of Ilocos Sur (Gregorio del Pilar, Magsingal, San Esteban, Banayoyo, Cervantes, Burgos, Santiago, San Vicente, Santa Catalina, Lidlidda, Nagbukel, Sinait, Sigay, San Ildefonso, Galimuyod, Quirino, City of Vigan, San Emilio, Cabugao, Caoayan, San Juan, Santa, Bantay, Santo Domingo, Santa Maria, Narvacan, Salcedo, City of Candon).

According to Cayanan, Betty may diminish into a tropical storm by Thursday or Friday as it approaches PAR.

She clarified that PAGASA has not yet proclaimed the beginning of the rainy season and that isolated thunderstorms are to blame for the rain showers in some locations.
