00:00Good morning to all of our viewers and to all of our viewers in the first row.
00:17Why does it seem like there is a delay in the arrival of the Mayan season this year?
00:20Is there a connection to the next arrival of the typhoon?
00:24Actually, we don't have a basis yet.
00:28It's only been around 10 years since we started announcing the onset of the Amihan.
00:34So, it's possible that years before we announced,
00:38there were Amihan seasons that started later.
00:42But for now, it's possible that we will still make guidelines
00:47on how we can say if the arrival of Amihan is delayed.
00:51And also, on the follow-up questions,
00:53because of the following typhoons,
00:55although there were a lot of typhoons that passed through the north,
01:00the typhoon paths were not immediately obstructed
01:05by the arrival of the cold Amihan winds.
01:08So, compared to 10 years,
01:11because the past years were around the first week or first part of November.
01:17But it became later part of November
01:20because it's possible that the typhoon paths were obstructed by the arrival of the cold Amihan winds.
01:25Now that there is the Amihan,
01:26will there be more rain that we are experiencing now?
01:31So, for us, in Metro Manila,
01:34it's possible that the Amihan season is less thunderstorms.
01:39But for those in the eastern part of our country,
01:43especially in the eastern part of Luzon,
01:46or in Visayas,
01:47it's more common for the rain to be caused by the Amihan.
01:50So, usually, when the rain is caused by the Amihan,
01:53there are no more or less thunderstorms.
01:57We can already feel the cold.
01:59Based on what is expected,
02:02what is the lowest temperature in the country?
02:04And where can we experience this?
02:07Based on the lowest temperature at the start of this year around January,
02:15it reached around 9.8.
02:18It reached around 7.2 in La Trinidad, Benguet, and Paguio.
02:23So, we are not removing those possibilities.
02:26Will there be a difference in the Amihan season now because of the cold?
02:31So, when the Amihan season and the cold comes,
02:37we are not removing the possibility that the rain can be stronger
02:43because of the cold.
02:46The possibility that the rain can be stronger
02:50when the Amihan season and the cold come at the same time.
02:53Ms. Veronica,
02:55are we monitoring any new low-pressure areas or thunderstorms
02:59that are forming outside the PAR?
03:01Right now, we are not monitoring any LPA or thunderstorms
03:04inside or near our Philippine area of responsibility.
03:07Thank you very much.
03:08Good morning, Ms. Veronica Torres,
03:10weather specialist from Pagasa.
03:12Take care.
