+ FORECAST OUTLOOK: UTOR is expected to continue moving West
to WNW making landfall anew over Southern Mindoro this morning
before moving out into the South China Sea. The eye shall be
crossing San Jose, Occ. Mindoro between 7-8 AM this morning
and pass just to the north of Coron (Calamian), Palawan this
afternoon around 2 PM. The 3 to 5-day long range forecast
(Dec 13 to 15) shows UTOR intensifying further over the
South China Sea with projected winds of 185-km/hr (Category

Masbate, Ticao, Marinduque and the coastal areas of Southern
Quezon & Batangas. Its core (eye + eyewall) is now passing
between Tablas and Boracay Islands moving towards Southern
Mindoro. Typhoon force winds with moderate to heavy rains
can be expected today along inner bands of Utor. Meanwhile,
its Outer Bands continues to spread across Northern Palawan,
Luzon, Visayas and the whole Bicol Region. 30 to 50 km/hr
winds and rains can be expected along areas affected by
the outer bands. People living around the slopes of Mayon
Volcano in Albay especially along areas where possible
LAHAR FLOWS (mixture of volcanic mud and water) are loca-
ted - must be evacuated now. Coastal Storm Surge flooding
of 4 to 5 feet above normal tide levels...along with large
and dangerous battering waves can be expected near and to
the north of where the center of UTOR passes by over Nor-
thern Panay, Romblon and Mindoro.

REMARKS: 2 AM (18 GMT) 10 DECEMBER POSITION: 12.1N 122.8E.
^TY Utor is expected to maintain intensity or weaken only
slightly through 24 hours under the competing influences
of land interaction and good upper level outflow. The storm
is then expected to intensify in the South China Sea at a
slightly less than Climatological rate between 24 and 72
hours as continued good upper level outflow is somewhat
offset by entrainment of drier air from the asian
continent...(more info)
