00:00A good morning to all of us, this is the latest weather update for Monday, February 17, 2025.

00:12At the moment, we are not being watched by LPA or typhoons inside and outside of our Philippine Area of Responsibility.

00:19And if we can see here in our latest satellite animation, a large part of our country is experiencing severe weather.

00:27At the moment, we are not being watched by heavy clouds that could cause heavy rains throughout the day.

00:37Except here in Northern Luzon, due to the continuous effects of the typhoon and the shear line,

00:44we can experience heavy rains along the eastern sections of the Northern Luzon area.

00:49And the Intertropical Convergence Zone or ITCZ could also experience heavy rains in the southern portions of Mindanao and Palawan.

01:01And we expect that the next few days, the weather will continue to be clear for a large part of our country

01:08within the next two days or until Wednesday.

01:11And when Thursday comes, there is a possibility of heavy rains in the easterlies,

01:16the hot winds coming from the Pacific Ocean here in the eastern sections of our country.

01:25Let's talk about the weather conditions here in Luzon today.

01:29As we mentioned earlier, due to the effects of the shear line and the strong winds,

01:35we can experience heavy rains here in the eastern portions of the Northern and Central Luzon area.

01:41For areas of Batanes, like Cagayan and Apayaw, we can experience light to moderate rains due to the effects of the strong winds.

01:50And here in Isabela and Aurora, we can experience moderate to at times heavy rains due to the effects of the shear line.

01:59That's why it's doubly hot for our countrymen due to the possibility of flooding or landslides,

02:04especially in the Hazard or Low-Lying Areas.

02:09In the colder parts of Luzon, we expect that the weather will continue to be clear.

02:14It will be hot, especially when the afternoon comes,

02:17and there is a possibility of shortness of rain or sudden rainstorms,

02:24more often in the afternoon or at night.

02:27As for the temperature forecast for the neighboring cities here in Luzon,

02:31for Lawag, Tuguegarao, Metro Manila, and Legazpi,

02:36our maximum temperatures can reach 31°C.

02:40The temperature in Baguio is between 17°C to 23°C and 22°C to 30°C for Tagaytay.

02:50There will be times in the vast majority of our country for Palawan, Visayas, and Mindanao areas.

02:57Due to the effects of the Intertropical Conversion Zone or ITCZ,

03:01the rainy season can still be experienced here in Basilan, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi,

03:07as well as here in Palawan, although more on the southern portions of Palawan area.

03:12And for the rest of Visayas and Mindanao, generally, we expect fair weather conditions today,

03:18except for the isolated thunderstorms that are more often experienced in the afternoon or at night.

03:25As for the temperature forecast for the neighboring cities here in Palawan,

03:29for Calayaan Islands, our maximum temperatures can reach 32°C and 24°C to 31°C for Puerto Princesa.

03:39As for neighboring cities, for Visayas, our maximum temperatures for Iloilo, Tacloban,

03:45as well as Cebu, can reach 31°C.

03:48And for neighboring cities, for Mindanao, for Cagayan de Oro,

03:52our maximum temperatures can reach 31°C.

03:55For Metro Davao, it's 24°C to 30°C.

03:58And for Zamboanga, it's 24°C to 33°C.

04:04As for the location of our ocean, we don't have a gale warning or warning for high waves.

04:11However, we are still hoping that there will be moderate to high waves in the coastal areas of Northern Luzon.

04:19That's why we are just being careful in our plans for the coastal areas.
