00:00And good morning everyone, so we have an update on the storm Dindo. We will continue live with Rhea Torres, weather forecaster of Pagasa.
00:07Good morning, Ms. Rhea.
00:09Good morning also, good morning to all of our viewers.
00:12Ms. Rhea, will the storm Dindo make Hanging Habagat stronger? And if so, how long will it last here in our country?
00:20So for now, Hanging Habagat is mostly concentrated here in the area of the extreme northern Luzon.
00:26And based on our forecast, this is far from our country.
00:30And this will follow, Hanging Habagat will follow the movement of this storm Dindo.
00:35So most likely, although Hanging Habagat is already strong, it will not reach directly to the other part of our country.
00:42So most likely, Hanging Habagat is only offshore in the West Philippine Sea area.
00:48So for the next few days, Hanging Habagat will still be weak.
00:52So we hope that it will rain in the afternoon in our part of the country.
00:56Ms. Rhea, why is this storm Dindo not able to make Hanging Habagat stronger, unlike the other storms?
01:03So first off, because its intensity is still weak.
01:08So currently, it was only in the Tropical Depression category last night.
01:14And it just got stronger into the Tropical Storm category recently.
01:18And because it is far from our country, and it will continue to move away from our country,
01:23its impact on the southwest Luzon is not very strong.
01:27And not to mention, the area where it is located is mostly,
01:33the influence of Hanging Habagat is mostly in the area of the northern Luzon.
01:39So if ever we see an enhancement of Hanging Habagat,
01:44it should be in the northeastern boundary of Parda, the location of the center of Dogu,
01:50so that we can experience the enhanced southwest Luzon.
01:54What weather systems can affect our country today?
01:58So as we said earlier, Hanging Habagat is still possible to rain,
02:03especially here in the extreme northern Luzon, along with Batanes and Baboyan Islands.
02:08And then for the rest of the country, we expect that it will be hot.
02:13And there are also possibilities of sudden rainfalls.
02:17It is more common in the afternoon and at night, like localized thunderstorms.
02:22Good morning. Thank you very much Ms. Rhea Torres, weather specialist from Pagasa.
02:27Thank you very much also. Good morning.
