…HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
Heavy Rainfall
- Today, moderate to heavy with at times intense rains are likely over Batanes, Cagayan including Babuyan Islands, Cordillera Administrative Region, and Ilocos Region… …Scattered flash flows and rain-induced landslides are highly likely especially in areas that are highly or very highly susceptible to these hazards.
- Monsoon rains are possible over Western Visayas, Zamboanga Peninsula, Palawan and Occidental Mindoro in the next 24 hours…
Severe winds
- Winds may reach gale- to storm-force strength in areas where Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal #2 is in effect. This may result in generally light to moderate damage to structures and vegetation.
