[ DOST-PAGASA 5:00PM Update: At 4:00 PM today, Tropical storm “#PaengPH” was estimated based on all available data at 985 km East of Virac, Catanduanes (13.5˚N, 133.4˚E), with maximum sustained winds of 95 kph near the center and gustiness of 120 kph.

Forecast: CALABARZON, MIMAROPA, Bicol Region, Visayas, Zamboanga Peninsula, Northern Mindanao and Caraga will have cloudy skies with light to moderate rainshowers and thunderstorms. Cagayan valley, Cordillera and Ilocos Region will experience partly cloudy skies with isolated light rains. Metro Manila and the rest of the country will be partly cloudy to cloudy with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms.]
Moderate to strong winds blowing from the Northeast will prevail over Luzon and Eastern Visayas and the coastal waters along these areas will be moderate to rough. Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate coming from the Northeast to Northwest with slight to moderate seas.
PAGASA said that 'Paeng' is too far to affect any part of the country. However, it will continue to enhance northeasterly winds over the eastern seaboard of Central and Southern Luzon and of Visayas resulting to rough to very rough sea conditions over the aforementioned areas. Fisherfolks and those using small seacrafts are advised not to venture out over the said seaboards.
The public and the disaster risk reduction and management council concerned are advised to take appropriate actions and watch for the next bulletin.
