00:00This is Christine.
00:02Earlier this afternoon, she was at the coastal waters of Santa Lucia, Ilocos Sur.
00:08The strong winds were blowing at a speed of 95 kilometers per hour
00:12near the center of the city and reached 145 kilometers per hour.
00:17It was moving in the direction of Canluran very slowly.
00:20This is Christine. She is still remaining in the severe tropical storm category.
00:25Aside from Christine, we are also monitoring the low-pressure area.
00:29This is outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility.
00:32This low-pressure area still has a high chance of a storm in the next 24 hours.
00:39We can see the possible path of this low-pressure area.
00:45It is possible that it will reach the northern Luzon area or not recurve.
00:51Because we still have a lot of days to go,
00:55the uncertainty is still high.
00:57That is why we always monitor the upcoming updates of the weather forecast.
01:02Let us now look at the track of Christine.
01:06We expect that by tomorrow,
01:08Christine will be out of the Philippine Area of Responsibility.
01:12By tomorrow afternoon.
01:14We expect that because Christine will be going to the seaside,
01:18it is possible that she will move to the West Philippine Sea area.
01:24We expect that in the next five days,
01:27it will remain as a severe tropical storm,
01:29but we are still not ruling out the possibility that it will become a typhoon category.
01:36Also because of this,
01:38Christine has the Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal No. 3 in Ilocos Sur, La Union, and Pangasinan.
01:46Signal No. 2 in Cagayan, Babuyan Islands, Isabela,

04:03and flood-prone areas due to floods or landslides.
04:09We also expect that today,
04:11there will be heavy rainfall in areas outside wind signal areas.
04:16This means that in the whole country,
