  • The spiral inner bands of Typhoon PARMA (PEPENG) continues to dump moderate to heavy rains across the Bicol Region. The system has slowed down just to the NNE of Catanduanes.

    *Residents and visitors along Northern Bicol and the rest of Luzon should closely monitor the progress of PARMA.

    *Kindly refer to your local warnings & bulletins issued by your country's official weather agency. This advisory is intended for additional information purposes only.


    + Forecast Outlook: PARMA is expected to continue moving NW across the warm Philippine Sea and shall make landfall over Palanan Bay in Isabela. The 3 to 5-day Long-Range Forecast shows the system slowing down as it traverses Cagayan, Abra and Ilocos Norte early Sunday morning Oct 04 and shall be off the northern coast of Ilocos Norte for the next 3 days. Please be aware that long-range forecast changes every now and then. Continued monitoring on this potential typhoon is a must for disaster preparedness agencies.

    + Effects: PARMA's circulation continues to affect Southeastern Luzon...its inner bands continues to dump moderate to heavy rains across the Bicol Region w/ winds not exceeding 55 kph overnight. Tropical Storm conditions w/ winds not exceeding 75 kph together with moderate to sometimes heavy rains can be expected along Catanduanes and parts of coastal Camarines Provinces tonight. While, the flood-stricken areas of Central and Southern Luzon including Metro Manila will be under the typhoon's outer rainbands today. 1-day rainfall accumulations of 100 up to 200 mm (moderate to heavy rain) can be expected along PARMA's rainbands...with isolated accumulations of up to 400 mm (very heavy rain) near the center of PARMA. People living around the slopes of Mayon Volcano in Albay & of Bulusan Volcano in Sorsogon - especially along the areas where possible MUDFLOWS (LAHAR) FLOWS (mixture of volcanic mud and water) are located must stay alert as moderate to heavy rains associated by this system are likely to affect the area beginning today. 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 coastal Storm Surge flooding of 13 to 18 feet above normal tide levels...accompanied by large and dangerous battering waves...is possible along the eastern coastal areas of Bicol Region, Samar & Eastern Luzon. Extreme damage is likely on this type of storm surge.

    + Tropical Cyclone Watch:

    (1) Typhoon MELOR (20W) moving very slowly and threatens the Marianas.

    2 AM (18 GMT) 03 OCTOBER: 16.7N 123.1E / 215-260 KPH (TY-Cat 4) / NW @ 17 KPH

    REMARKS: 2 PM (06 GMT) 02 OCTOBER POSITION: 15.3N 125.0E.
    *TYPHOON (TY) 19W (PARMA) LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 245 NM EAST OF
    MANILA, PHILIPPINES, HAS TRACKED NORTHWESTWARD AT 15 KNOTS OVER THE
    PAST SIX HOURS. TY 19W CONTINUES TO TRACK ON THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY
    OF THE THE SUB-TROPICAL RIDGE TO THE NORTHEAST. THE SYSTEM IS
    EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ON A WEST-NORTHWESTWARD TO NORTHWESTWARD TRACK
    TOWARDS THE NORTHEASTERN COAST OF LUZON, MAKING LANDFALL NEAR TAU
    12. THE SYSTEM WILL WEAKEN AS IT CROSSES NORTHERN LUZON INTO THE
    LUZON STRAIT BEFORE MOVING SLOWLY INTO THE SOUTH CHINA SEA. THE
    AVAILABLE NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN POOR AGREEMENT, WITH
    SEVERAL AIDS (NGPS, EGRR, GFDN) CROSSING NORTH-CENTRAL LUZON AND
    MOVING FURTHER INTO THE SOUTH CHINA SEA. THE REMAINING AIDS (JGSM,
    AVNO, WBAR AND TCLP) INDICATE A RECURVATURE SCENARIO, WITH AVNO
    BEING THE MOST AGRESSIVE OF THESE (REACHING TOKYO AT TAU 120). THIS
    FORECAST FAVORS THE MORE WESTWARD GROUPING, BUT REFLECTS THE
    UNCERTAINTY IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD, TRACKING MUCH MORE SLOWLY IN THE
    AFTER TAU 72. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 020600Z IS 32 FEET...
