    + Forecast Outlook: 05W is expected to turn slightly to the WNW later today. The 2-day Short-Range Forecast shows 05W making landfall off Leizhou Peninsula by tomorrow afternoon and shall weaken rapidly into a disturbance as it moves overland across the China-Vietnam boundary by early Monday morning July 13.

    + Effects: 05W's circulation remains compact with its rain bands now starting to spread across Hainan Island and Southwestern China. Light to moderate rains with winds & squalls plus thunderstorms can be expected along these bands. 1-day rainfall accumulations of 100 up to 200 mm can be expected along the storm's rain bands. Residents in low-lying areas & steep slopes must remain alert & seek evacuation for possible life-threatening flash floods, mudslides & landslides due to the anticipated heavy rains brought about by this system. Precautionary measures must be initiated if necessary.

Possible landslides, mudslides, mudflows (lahars) and life-threatening flash floods are likely to occur along steep mountain/volcanic slopes, river banks, low-lying & flood-prone areas of the affected areas.
