Bagyong Juaning moves out, "Kabayan" comes closer

According to PAGASA's latest weather update issued July 27 at 11PM, Tropical Storm "JUANING" is now over the West Philippine Sea and heading towards Southern China.

Juaning is currently located 110 km Southwest of Laoag City with a maximum winds of 85 kph near the center and gustiness of up to 100 kph.

From its previous movement of 15 kph, Bagyong Juaning is now moving out faster at 19 kph.

By Thursday morning (July 28), Juaning is expected to leave Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR).

No more public storm warning signal in Metro Manila, but Signal #2 is still up in Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, Abra, Kalinga, Mt. Province, Ifugao, La Union, Benguet and Nueva Vizcaya, while Signal No. 1 in the following areas: Apayao, Cagayan, Isabela, Aurora, Quirino, Nueva Ecija, Pangasinan, Tarlac, Zambales, Pampanga and Bataan.

As Juaning continues to move out, another low pressure has formed into a tropical depression and is named "Kabayan" (the same name of a tropical storm that slammed into Northern Luzon in November 2007).

It's being expected to enter PAR by Friday, so let's still expect a rainy weekend ahead.
