00:00The storm continues to intensify as it continues to sweep the ocean.
00:06They are Southern Luzon and Hulitong na Mataan.
00:09At a distance of 750 kilometers, they are Daet, Camarines Norte.
00:14This is because of the strong winds of 75 kilometers per hour near the center
00:18and a gust of wind that reaches 90 kilometers per hour.
00:22This is moving at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour.
00:26At the moment, this does not have a direct effect on any part of our country.
00:30But tomorrow, we expect that the eastern part of Southern Luzon
00:35will experience a gust of strong winds
00:38and also rains caused by Hurricane Nika.
00:42So be careful for our countrymen there.
00:45Meanwhile, the storm that we are monitoring outside,
00:48which is the former Hurricane Marseille,
00:50is Hulitong na Mataan at a distance of 850 kilometers west of extreme northern Luzon.
00:56And this does not have a direct effect on any part of our country.
01:00Meanwhile, another low-pressure area or LPA outside the park
01:05is Hulitong na Mataan at a distance of 2,505 kilometers east of northeastern Mindanao.
01:11And this is possible to enter our area of responsibility by Tuesday.
01:16And we can also see that this will develop and become a storm in the coming days.
01:22But at the moment, this does not have a direct effect on any part of our country.
01:27But we are still continuously monitoring
01:29and continuing to follow the updates that will bring out hope.
01:34Meanwhile, we are here with the latest forecast track analysis of Hurricane Nika.
01:39Generally, we can see that Hurricane Nika is moving west-northwestward
01:44throughout our forecast period.
01:47And it will continue to sweep the ocean east of Luzon until tomorrow, Monday.
01:54And we can see that it will landfall here in the Isabela-Aurora area by Monday afternoon or evening.
02:02And then it will cross here in the northern and central Luzon area
02:07by Monday afternoon onwards until Friday morning.
02:12And then by Tuesday morning, it will head to the West Philippine Sea.
02:22And we can see that before it lands, it will intensify into a severe tropical storm category by tomorrow.
02:31And also, we are not ignoring the possibility that Hurricane Nika will continue to intensify
02:39where we also have the possibility that it will become a typhoon category
02:45before it lands here in the Isabela-Aurora area.
02:49And also, we will give a warning that not only the areas where Hurricane Nika will landfall will be affected.
02:57But the large area of the northern and central Luzon,
03:01which is surrounded by heavy rain and strong winds brought by Hurricane Nika,
03:06will be affected mostly by Monday and Tuesday.
03:12So, we expect that the peak of Hurricane Nika's landslide will affect the area of the northern and central Luzon
03:20by Monday and Tuesday.
03:22Meanwhile, starting tomorrow, there will be strong winds in the area of the southern Luzon,
03:31in the eastern part of the Bicol region, and also in the area of Quezon.
03:36So, we will continue to monitor and continue to monitor the updates that will be released.
03:44At the moment, we have a strong wind signal, number one, in the area of Isabela,
03:50Quirino, eastern portion of Nueva Vizcaya, Aurora,
03:54in the eastern portions of Nueva Ecija, Bulacan, Quezon, along with the Polilio Islands.
04:00In Camarinas Norte, Camarinas Sur, Catanduanes, and also in the northeastern portion of Albay,
04:06where the areas that we mentioned will be affected by the strong winds brought by Hurricane Nika.
04:13And it is still possible that it will bring damages, especially to the structures that are made of light materials.
04:20So, be careful for our countrymen.
04:23So, what we expect, especially by the afternoon of tomorrow,
04:28is that there will be strong winds in these areas.
04:33And by tomorrow, we expect that while Hurricane Nika will be approaching our land,
04:39we will also have a strong wind signal, number two, in a large portion of the area of Luzon.
04:47And also, we see that the highest wind signal that we can bring up is wind signal number three,
04:54but we will not rule out the possibility that if Hurricane Nika intensifies into a typhoon,
05:01we can also bring up wind signal number four in the areas of northern and central Luzon.
05:09Aside from the areas under wind signals,
05:13the areas of Batanes and Northern Cagayan, along with the Baboyan Islands, will also experience strong winds tomorrow.
05:23As for the rains, tonight until tomorrow evening,
05:27the areas of Catanduanes will experience moderate to heavy rains.

05:51where it will be closer and Hurricane Nika has already landfalled here in the Isabela Aurora area,
05:59a large portion of Luzon will experience heavy rains,

06:21Camarines Norte and Camarines Sur in the area of Catanduanes,

06:34So, be careful for our countrymen regarding the possibility of floods and landslides.
06:41Meanwhile, by Monday evening to Tuesday evening,
06:45while Hurricane Nika crosses the land of Northern and Central Luzon,
06:51a large portion of Luzon will experience heavy rains,

07:31These are the areas that have experienced heavy rains and landslides.
07:38So, these areas have not yet been recovered.
07:42So, be extra careful and be alert for our countrymen there,
07:47especially those who live near rivers, streams, and mountainous areas.
