00:00This is Enteng. It was last seen at 4 p.m.

00:04It is located at a distance of 115 kilometers east-southeast of Birac, Catanduanes.

00:10It is blowing strong winds of 55 kilometers per hour near the center and a gust of 70 kilometers per hour.

00:19It is moving in the direction northwest at a speed of 30 kilometers per hour.

00:24This is the track we see of Enteng.

00:28We can see the yellow area surrounding it.

00:32This is the area of strong winds.

00:34The signal number 1 to 2 is possible in those areas.

00:37And this enclosed white area is the area of probability.

00:43So within this region, Enteng can go to the center.

00:49We expect that after 24 hours or at 2 p.m. tomorrow,

00:54it is possible that it is located at 170 kilometers east of Baler, Aurora.

00:59And then after 48 hours or 2 p.m. on Tuesday over the coastal waters of Calayan, Cagayan

01:07and September 4, 2 p.m. over the coastal waters of Burgos, Ilocos Norte.

02:16including the Southwest Monsoon or Habagat.

02:19So we can see there are places that are light blue and white.

02:24So the ones that are light blue, this is the cost of Enteng,

02:28and the places under white are cost by Southwest Monsoon.

02:33So 100 to 200 millimeters of rain in the Polilio Islands,

02:37Catanduanes, Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, in Masbate, Albay, Sorsogon,

02:42northern Samar, and Samar.

04:28Batangas, Occidental Mindoro, and the northern portion of Palawan.

04:32So in the areas that we mentioned,

04:35we are taking care of our countrymen who live in landslides and flood-prone areas,

04:41because it is possible that there will be floods or landslides.

04:45And then in elevated and mountainous areas,

04:48the forecast rainfall is possible to be higher.

04:52So to our countrymen, especially those who have been raining the past few days,

04:56it is possible to always be updated on the forecast advisories

05:01and to always coordinate with our Local Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office.

05:08We expect that there will also be strong winds,

05:12this enhanced forecast for today to tomorrow afternoon in Mimaropa,

05:18Western Visayas, Central Visayas, Negros Island Region, Eastern Visayas,

05:23the non-signals in Eastern Visayas, Caraga Region, Northern Mindanao, and Zamboanga Peninsula.

05:31And then for tomorrow afternoon to Tuesday afternoon in Zambales, Bataan,

05:37Aurora, Bulacan, Metro Manila, Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Bicol Region, Visayas, and Caraga Region.

05:45So for Tuesday afternoon to Wednesday afternoon in Zambales, Bataan, Aurora, Bulacan, Metro Manila,

05:52Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Bicol Region, and Western Visayas.

05:58We also have a high gale warning for several cities in our country,

06:03particularly here in Catanduanes, Camarines Norte, Eastern Coast of Camarines Sur,

06:10Eastern Coast of Albay, Eastern Coast of Sorsogon, and Northern and Eastern Coast of Northern Samar.

06:16That's why it is advisable to spread in those areas.

06:20For our hazards in coastal waters, these are the areas that we mentioned that have a gale warning.

06:26And moderate to rough seas in the Eastern Seaboard of Central Luzon,

06:30and also in the Southern Luzon in those that do not have a gale warning.

06:35And the Eastern Seaboard of Eastern Samar and Seaboard of Kalayaan Islands.

06:43And then moderate seas in the Southern Seaboard of Calabarzon.

06:47The remaining seaboards of Bicol Region, Palawan, Eastern Visayas, and the seaboard of Western Visayas.

06:55Then, Northern and Eastern Seaboards of Caraga Region, and the Eastern Seaboard of Davao Oriental.

07:04This is what we expect.

07:06This will be a track.

07:08So we expect, generally, that the movement of this is generally northwestward until tomorrow morning.

07:16And then it is possible that it will landfall in Catanduanes or Albay in the next 12 hours.

07:23So in the remainder of tomorrow, it is possible that it will move north, northwestward, or northward

07:30after emerging over the waters of Camarines Province.

07:33And it is possible that it will move over the waters in the east of Luzon.

07:40So from Tuesday to Wednesday, it is possible that it will move northwestward

07:47and then it is possible that it will move westward while decelerating over Luzon Street.

07:54So we are not removing the possibility that it will landfall in the mainland northern Luzon or in Baboyan Island.

08:03We also see that the area of probability in the northern Luzon area is not ruled out.

08:15So in the next 12 hours, it is possible that Enteng will rise and reach the Tropical Storm category.

08:23And then until early Wednesday, it is possible that it will remain as Tropical Storm.

08:31And its peak intensity is by Thursday or Friday and it is in the Typhoon category.
