01:59And finally, we will check the latest weather outlook by Pag-Asa weather specialist, Jomer Eclarino.
02:06As the region braces for possible shifts in conditions on the days ahead.
02:12So before we move into the other news stories, we already have on the phone Pag-Asa, Jomer Eclarino.
02:18So we'll go first on that particular segment of today's Beyond the Headlines.
02:22So Jomer, are you there?
02:24Yes, sir. Good afternoon, everyone.
02:27And to all listeners of the Sun Star Sibu.
02:29Good afternoon, sir, DJ and Satanan.
02:32Yes, and thank you for making time for us today.
02:35So Karun Jomerba, can you tell us about the developing story about a potential storm that's going to enter the Philippine area of responsibility?
02:44Yes, sir, DJ and to all sa itong mga kaigsuunan, no?
02:49First of all, kining intertropical convergence zone, the ITCC is affecting in the southern part of Mindanao.
02:57Samtaang Amihan or the Northeast Moon Zone is continuously affecting the extreme northern part of the zone.
03:05So there is a 2,000 visayas, especially here in Cebu, generally expected na ito to be as a for weather conditions with localized thunderstorms.
03:15So in relation to the low pressure area na itong gimonitor, still outside the Philippine area of responsibility.
03:21Sa itong latest locations, 1,275 kilometers, east of south eastern Luzon.
03:28And the chances of this to develop into tropical cyclone or tropical depression is high chance na.
03:36So once makasulod kinisa itong Philippine area of responsibility and ma-develop as a bagyo within 24 hours,
03:44na akin ng domestic name na Wilma or letter W naman ta, si Bagyong Wilma.
03:51So Jomer, if ever this will indeed enter the Philippine area of responsibility and will develop into a tropical storm,
04:01what's the timeline for it to potentially hit the country?
04:06So starting today, sir DJ, this is the continuously monitoring na ta sa itong weather updates.
04:16Actually, last week pa, we called one of the official informations from the DOC Pag-asa,
04:24the tropical cyclone threat potential, in advance of two weeks.
04:28And also last week, nag-sulti na ta sa media and also sa general public na a possible formation of the tropical cyclones.
04:35So critical this week, from this week, until there is a weekend.
04:40And next week, December 8 onwards, kiniang pag-traverse ng Bagyong Wilma sa atong Nasod.
04:48Atong mabigay pa karoon as a general forecast track,
04:52there is a between Dinagat Islands, Visayas, and southern part of Luzon,
04:58ang nakikita na in general na forecast track as of now.
05:02Once na maging Bagyong ito, sir, within 24 hours,
05:08DOC Pag-asa issued the tropical cyclone bulletins or kining official forecast track.
05:14So what we are advising our viewers right now, Jomer,
05:17is for them to stand by for the next 24 hours, if I captured you correctly?
05:21Yes, aside from stand by, is continuously monitoring what the agency released the official information
05:31in relation to this upcoming weather disturbance.
05:35So nakita na ito, kining possible na bagyo na maka-apekto most parts of Visayas
05:40at only most parts of Visayas but portion of Luzon and portion of Mindanao.
05:44So if ma-developed ito, mag-imbagyo, mag-i-issue tayo ng signals,
05:50tropical cyclone wind signals, in terms of the winds,
05:53dala ng weather disturbance.
05:55And also aside from that, itong expected na ito na mga heavy rains
06:00na possible gihapo na ito mga flash floods and landslides.
06:04And speaking of heavy rains, actually, Jomer,
06:07this is already not related to the possible tropical storm, no, Wilma,
06:14but this is about what happened, I think it was yesterday or two days ago.
06:19Was it true that the rainfall during that time was at 114 millimeters?
06:28Actually, that is yesterday.
06:30Ah, that's yesterday.
06:30Oh yes, yesterday where Dalapolapo is most affected by the localized thunderstorms.
06:37So itong nasinati ga hapon is due to localized thunderstorms.
06:41If we say localized, Lapolapo experience heavy rains.
06:49But the nearby municipality such as Mandawi, Cebu City,
06:53is dili na kasi natin o gusog na uwan.
06:55That is the localized or the isolated.
06:57Yes, correct, Sir DJ.
06:58Ang narecord na ito na rainfall in the span of two hours from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. is 114 millimeters,
07:07which is equivalent kini sa around 570,000 kabarels per square kilometer.
07:14And I'm just validating ba, or cross-validating the different information that we've been receiving since Tino.
07:20But correct me if I'm wrong, but during and after Typhoon Tino, there was no major flood that happened in Lapolapo City, right?
07:30Yes, if I'm not mistaken, no, sa mga social media, wala ako yung nakita na reported floodings during Tino.
07:40Yes, sir, yes, sir.
07:45Yeah, so what made yesterday different then?
07:49So actually, sir, during the Typhoon Tino, the 183 millimeters,
07:54ang inulan, ang narecord na ito, diri sa Lapolapo,
07:59is in the span of 24 hours.
08:04So dili talaga siya continuous na, binuhos talaga ang 183 millimeters sa Lapolapo.
08:12That is intermittent na siya.
08:14Unlike yesterday, itong 114 millimeters in the span of two hours is binuhos niya.
08:22So naay torrential rains tang na sinati gahapon sa Lapolapo.
08:27So na nag-cost na mga ilang area sa Lapolapo ng mga flash floods.
08:31So what we are saying, Jomer, correct me if I'm wrong,
08:34is while Tino had 183 millimeters, but they did not happen in just two hours.
08:42Unlike yesterday's incident, it's 114 millimeters, but two hours.
08:48Yes, this factors about the duration of the Heberine fall.
08:53So the 100 plus millimeters yesterday in the span of two hours,
09:00that is a high chance mag-cost ng mga flash floods.
09:04Even though 30 millimeters or 40 millimeters in the span of two hours can cause flash floods,
09:14due to the factors of the short duration of the Heberine falls.
09:18If you compare na ito sa 183 millimeters na inday-inday,
09:24example, after three hours, nag-ulan din, break na naman sad,
09:27then after three hours, nag-break.
09:29So naay possibility na mag-subside,
09:33naay time mag-subside ang tubig-ulan sa ating surface, sa land.
09:38Okay, what about, and this is my final question, don't worry.
09:43What about katong visuals early yesterday morning about what looked like a hurricane?
09:50What was that?
09:52Ah, yes, that's, I also saw in the social media the water spout.
10:00So water spout is like a tornado.
10:03So water spout is came from, technically, the type of the clouds of that is the cumulonimbus clouds
10:09or diha-gikan ang thunderstorms.
10:12So nangyayari ang water spout if natay severe or intense thunderstorms.
10:17That is the, the, one of the criteria ng severe or intense thunderstorms,
10:22nagkakaroon ng tornado.
10:24Water spout if tawag na ito ang origin diha sa bodies of water,
10:29such as yesterday spotted in the, the ocean of, diha sa may ulanggo.
10:36Ay, puntaing ganyo.
10:38And pag sinabi natin, ano, severe thunderstorms aside from tornado, water spout,
10:43possibility diha pondiri ang may tabo ang mga hill storms.
10:46So that is localized severe or intense thunderstorms na nag-develop itong water spout.
10:53And for additional information, avoid kapag nakakita itong water spout diha sa may bodies of water,
11:03avoid water sports activities, ka ng mga nangisda, nag-swimming, because it is risky.
11:10The intensity na nagtuyok sa hangin ng water spout is more than the intensity sa sulfur type 1.
11:17So nag-range ito ng 100 kilometers per hour up to more than 500 kilometers per hour.
11:24Is, is the water spout occurrence something that we've seen many times in the past
11:30or that's something that we just see every once in a while?
11:34Yes, Sir DJ, no.
11:36Itong water spout is not only here in Lapu-Lapo na nangyari.
11:41Sa ating mga history, all throughout the Philippines is nagkakaroon ng water spout.
11:46That is a normal na nangyari kapag meron tayong intense or severe thunderstorms.
11:52That is the high chance na magkaroon ng water spout.
11:55So, naanitay history way back.
11:59Sige, thank you for kind of clarifying all this, Jomer.
12:02Because these pieces of information are also important for the education of our viewers.
12:08So thank you for making time for us this afternoon.
12:10You're always welcome, Sir DJ, and also thank you for the social media and also for the TransStar
12:19to help us to disseminate the official informations came from the DOST Pag-Asa.
12:24So always monitor the weather updates.
12:27Ilabi na na tayo gimonitor na upcoming weather disturbance
12:30and to protect our mga kaigsuunan and to be safe sila always.
12:37Sige, thank you. Thank you, Jomer.
12:39Pag-sa-pesa, mag-salamat. Huwag maayong udto sa tanan.
12:42Mahayong udto.
12:43So that's the report from Pag-asa, Jomer Eclarino.
12:47And at least he was able to clarify the water spout incident yesterday,
12:52why the 114 millimeter rain caused floods in Lapu-Lapu City,
12:59and also the upcoming weather disturbance, which we will continue to monitor.
13:04And just as he advised us earlier for the next 24 hours,
13:07let's monitor the development of this potential weather disturbance.
13:13We can check that on the DOST Pag-asa website
13:16or on legit news sources such as Sunstar.
13:20So hopefully that nothing major will happen in the coming hours
13:25because we've been through so much already for this year.
13:28Well, some people would say nakakota na ta.
13:30So I'm also hopeful that this weather disturbance
13:32is not going to result into something that's major.
13:35So that's our prayer for today.
13:38So now, speaking of prayer,
13:40we're going to move towards the upcoming Sinulog 2026.
13:47And if we recall, several weeks ago,
13:49it was already reported here that there are adjustments
13:52on how we will be celebrating Sinulog in this coming January.
13:59So as we need to be refreshed by it,
14:03if we recall, it was already stated
14:06that there's going to be a shift
14:08into not just looking at it as a festival,
14:12but looking at it also from a religious standpoint.
14:15And a lot of that, given what has happened to Cebu,
14:19we are already also adjusting
14:22the way we celebrate the festivities,
14:25even if it's the grandest and the biggest in the country.
14:29So to hear more updates specific to this development,
14:34we have Sunstar reporter Cherry Ann Virador.
14:39Cherry, are you there?
14:40Hello, DJ.
14:42Yes, mayam hapun.
14:43Good afternoon, DJ.
14:45Good afternoon sa itong viewers,
14:46sabihan, the headlines.
14:49Sige.
14:49So Cherry, can you tell us about the changes
14:52that are also developing aligned
14:54to Cebu's celebration of Sinulog 2026?
14:59Okay.
15:00So the latest update for the Sinulog 2026
15:04is that the Cebu City has announced
15:06a reduction in its budget for Sinulog 2026,
15:10cutting it from initially proposed 100 million
15:13to 78 million.
15:15The remaining funds will be redirected
15:19towards the rehabilitation and recovery efforts
15:23to the communities that were heavily affected
15:26by Typhoon Tinu that was struck in Cebu on November 4.
15:33So Cebu City Mayor Nestor Archival
15:36in a press conference yesterday explained
15:38that the decision reflects the city's commitment
15:41to prioritize disaster response
15:44while ensuring a festival that maintains
15:47the quality, vibrancy of previous years.
15:52So he mentioned,
15:55although nag-cut budget,
15:57but the celebration,
15:59ang celebration will be the same
16:03as the previous years.
16:05DJ.
16:06So how will this adjustment in terms of funding
16:11impact also the number of contingents this year
16:15or next year?
16:17Okay.
16:18So this Sinulog 2026,
16:21there were 37 performers or contingents
16:27that will be performed during the Sinulog
16:30compared to Sinulog 2025
16:33that there were 43 performers.
16:36So that 37,
16:3912 of these will be coming from out-of-town locations
16:42including Cotabato,
16:44Zamboanga City,
16:46Bae City,
16:47Albay,
16:48Antipolo,
16:49Montinlupa,
16:50Davao Occidental,
16:52Tagbilaran City,
16:53Las Piña City,
16:54and others areas
16:55with the Mascara Festival of Bacolod City
16:58joining as the sole guest contingent.
17:01So 17 of these,
17:0337,
17:0417 contingents
17:05will represent Cebu City itself,
17:08compromising groups from barangays,
17:11schools,
17:11and local cultural organizations.
17:13These include Lumad Basakanon,
17:16Basak Pardo,
17:17Barrio Luz,
17:18Guadalope,
17:19Banilad,
17:20Binaliw,
17:21Mabolo,
17:22Tribu Kinaiahan
17:23from San Nicolas Popper,
17:25Inayawan,
17:26San Roque,
17:27Tejero,
17:28Kasambagan,
17:29Babag,
17:29San Nicolas Popper,
17:31UP Cebu,
17:33Labangon,
17:34and Talamban.
17:35So meanwhile,
17:36while seven contingents will hail
17:38from neighboring cities
17:40and Cebu province
17:41that will be including
17:41Toledo City,
17:43Carcar City,
17:44Alcoy,
17:45Mandawi City,
17:46Carmen,
17:46Domanhog,
17:47and Danau City
17:48as a guest participants.
17:50So giredoos nila
17:52ang number of participants
17:53because last 2025,
17:56Sinulog 2025,
17:57na human siya,
17:5810pm
18:00tungod sa daghan
18:01mga performers.
18:02And then Archival wanted
18:04na human ang sinulog
18:06for 2026
18:07as early as 7pm.
18:09So he wanted
18:10that everyone can enjoy
18:12and after the celebration
18:14and everyone can enjoy
18:15nang dili kapu yun,
18:17dili sila laayun
18:20tungod sa dugay mahuman.
18:21So mauna nanggi target
18:22for 2026
18:24na sinulog
18:25ang mauna nanggi
18:26expect
18:27na time
18:28na mahuman.
18:29How about
18:30for the,
18:31what would be the
18:31impact of the reduced
18:33budget
18:33on the major prices?
18:36Okay.
18:38Archival
18:39said
18:40the prices
18:42will be the same
18:43as the previous years
18:44which
18:45there will be
18:46no changes
18:47for the prices
18:48so the
18:49first place
18:50will still receive
18:523 million,
18:53the second place
18:54will still receive
18:552 million
18:56and the third place
18:58will receive
18:591.5 million
19:01so
19:01there will be
19:03no reduction
19:03of prices.
19:05It will be
19:05still the same.
19:06So I think
