00:00 Because rabies is a hot topic right now,

00:03 free anti-rabies vaccination is available for the first-time and born-to-be-wild in Tondo, Manila.

00:08 Some fur parents have already lined up to get vaccinated for their pets against rabies.

00:15 The Department of Health is also involved in the vaccination.

00:18 According to the DOH, rabies-prone animals are dangerous and can die.

00:23 They can be infected by bites, licks or the movement of animals.

00:30 It is better to avoid it by giving rabies vaccination to your pets.

00:36 If a dog or cat bites you, wash your wound and get vaccinated against rabies.

00:44 Also, go to the nearest health center or hospital even if you don't have any symptoms.

00:52 In the midst of this hot weather, everyone is asking,

00:56 "When will it rain?"

00:59 We will talk about this with the Assistant Weather Services Chief, Chris Perez.

01:04 Good morning and welcome to our news this afternoon.

01:08 Good morning Connie and to all our viewers.

01:11 We have news that some places in the country have been flooded with ice,

01:15 like in Carmen, Cotabato.

01:18 What is the reason for that?

01:20 This weekend, Thunderstorm Advisory issued our message to the Mindanao Regional Services Division.

01:27 It mentioned that from 2 pm to 6 pm on Saturday,

01:32 we have an ongoing thunderstorm that can cause rain, windstorm and that's it.

01:38 It also includes occasional ice rain, in some cases, tornado formation in the north of Cotabato area and in some parts of Mindanao area.

01:47 So, it happened that the ice rain in some parts of Cotabato area was caused by a severe thunderstorm.

01:54 A thunderstorm can cause rain and strong winds,

01:58 but a severe thunderstorm or a stronger thunderstorm can cause rain and ice,

02:02 like what we experienced in some parts of Mindanao this weekend.

02:07 I see. Okay.

02:07 But there are also other places, like Ipu-Ipu, right?

02:11 Is this more common when the weather is hot?

02:16 That's right Connie.

02:18 Because we're in dry months or dry season in our country,

02:21 like March, April and May,

02:24 not because it's dry months and we're not getting rained,

02:27 the possibility of isolated thunderstorm activity is higher.

02:31 The thunderstorm activity usually lasts for five minutes and the longest is up to two hours.

02:37 So these thunderstorms can cause rain,

02:40 strong winds, strong winds and severe thunderstorms in their area.

02:46 The rain can be caused by ice or hail,

02:48 or tornadoes or Ipu-Ipu in one place.

02:52 Okay.

02:52 If we experience Ipu-Ipu or tornadoes,

02:56 what should we do if it happens in a nearby area?

03:02 Well, first of all, the Thunderstorm Advisory will issue a warning

03:05 if we monitor small and fast-moving thunderstorms that can affect our area.

03:12 So the most important thing is monitoring.

03:15 Second, if we see heavy rain that can suddenly fall on their area,

03:20 it will only cause a storm.

03:22 It's better to be careful.

03:23 If we work or are exposed to open areas,

03:27 like those who are with us in the construction industry or in the middle of the forest,

03:32 it's better to be careful and to avoid rain and strong winds.

03:36 Sometimes, there are even accidents and landslides

03:39 when it rains, ice and tornadoes.

03:42 Finish the thunderstorm activity before we resume our outdoor activities, Connie.

03:47 Thank you for the reminder.

03:48 But this is what we heard first,

03:53 that until the second week of May, it will be very hot.

03:58 But of course, the question is, when will our country really have a storm?

04:03 And is it possible that a storm will come to us?

04:08 Well, Connie, for now, since we're almost done with the El Niño episode,

04:13 the storms we're expecting are very rare.

04:15 But in the month of May, we're expecting at least one to two storms

04:19 that can be monitored by the weather.

04:21 However, if it's right or not,

04:24 that's what we'll look for that will possibly happen in the coming months.

04:28 In terms of the rain that we're usually experiencing,

04:31 usually during the second half of every year,

04:33 the month of June and July, that's when the rain will start in our country.

04:37 But if that's the case, I hope everything will be fine.

04:40 So, we'll just wait for the El Niño and the Calis, sir.

04:46 But of course, that's for our next interview.

04:51 Thank you very much for your update on us.

04:54 Pag-asa Assistant Weather Services Specialist, Chris Perez.

04:58 [music]

05:00 Yes, you heard it right.

05:01 There's free drinking water.

05:04 That's what a Jeepney driver in Tarlac City is eagerly waiting for.

05:09 Inside his Jeep, there's a big water jug and plastic cups.

05:15 Because of the free water,

05:16 a greeting to him is from the passenger, Michaela Nelmida,

05:20 who uploaded a trending photo.

05:22 According to the driver, Joel Bondoc,

05:24 he's been driving for 18 years

05:26 and even though he's making a lot of money,

05:29 he's happy to help.

05:31 His smile is enough to thank his passengers.

05:34 "Kuya Joel, you're trending already?

05:37 Good job!"

05:38 "As long as your passengers don't drink 1, 2, 3."

05:42 "The water is free."

05:44 [music]

05:45 Here's the breaking news.

05:47 General Santos City Water District is in a mess

05:51 because of the loss of dozens of meters of water.

05:54 Since March, 66 meters have been stolen.

06:00 They've already contacted the police about this

06:03 and called on the public to report immediately

06:05 if there's a thief who stole meters.

06:09 They've also filed a complaint to the authorities.

06:13 [music]

06:15 A man was killed after fighting the police

06:17 in the entrapment operation of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency,

06:22 or LULUKSULU.

06:24 The suspect was given 2 kilos of humanoid shabu

06:29 that is worth Php 13.6 million.

06:34 The humanoid shabu, worth almost Php 4 million,

06:38 was found in a by-bus operation in Barangay Santol,

06:42 in Balayan, Batangas.

06:44 The suspect was arrested as a high-value individual

06:47 in the Batangas Drug Watch List.

06:49 He was given several packets of shabu

06:53 that weighed more than 500 grams.

06:56 He was not released.

06:58 Samantha Catantan, who was fenced off in the 2024 Paris Olympics,

07:01 has already qualified.

07:04 Samantha competed in the finals of the Women's Foil Event

07:08 of the Asia and Oceania Zonal Olympic Qualifier

07:12 in the United Arab Emirates on Saturday.

07:15 Even though she was being framed,

07:16 she won the Kazakhstan Cup with a score of 15-14.

07:21 In her victory, she was the 12th Filipino to compete in the Olympics

07:26 based on the list of the Philippine Olympic Committee.

07:29 Congrats, Samantha!

07:31 Let's admit that the reactions of many are negative

07:37 whenever they hear a child crying.

07:39 Yes, but in Tokyo, Japan,

07:42 the twins won in the wrestling match.

07:46 Here it is!

07:47 The sumo wrestlers are fighting one-on-one in the ring.

07:52 But the difference is that it's not like a wrestling match.

07:55 There's no contact because the winner in the match

07:58 will be the first to cry.

08:00 If there's a tie,

08:02 the winner will be the one to cry.

08:04 Yes, for the sole sole.

08:06 And as a start, the organizers

08:08 are wearing colorful masks.

08:10 And just a reminder,

08:12 they don't treat 100 children.

08:15 It's a tradition that started in 1991.

08:19 It's believed that the twins grow up healthy and fast.

08:24 That's the Crying Baby Sumo Festival certified!

08:28 Wow!

08:30 The kids really need to cry.

08:32 Yes, they need to be strong.
