The 2 to 5-day Long-Range Forecast shows NANGKA turning more to the NNW across the South China Sea on later today and turn more northerly on Friday June 26 with peak forecast winds of 100 kph. NANGKA shall start to recurve towards the NNE beginning Friday evening and shall pass across Taiwan Strait on Saturday evening.

    + Effects: NANGKA's circulation has become disorganized after passing over the mountains of Mindoro yesterday afternoon. Its inner bands continue to spread across Western Mindoro & Lubang Island...Winds of up to 85 kph with moderate to heavy rains can be expected along the inner bands especially along the core or central-dense overcast (CDO) of the system. Meanwhile, outer bands of NANGKA continues to affect parts of Southern Tagalog including Metro Manila, Calamian Group & Southwestern Luzon. Light to moderate rains with winds & squalls plus thunderstorms can be expected along the outer bands. 1-day rainfall accumulations of 100 up to 150 mm can be expected along the storm's rain bands...with isolated accumulations of up to 200 mm near the center. Improving weather can be expected across Southern Quezon, Bicol and the rest of Visayas as the storm moves farther away. 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.

    ^TROPICAL STORM (TS) 04W (NANGKA) CONTINUED TO TRACK TO THE
    WEST-NORTHWEST ALONG THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE
    (STR) EAST OF LUZON. THE SYSTEM HAS WEAKENED SLIGHTLY OVER THE LAST
    12 HOURS WITH MODERATE VERTICAL WINDSHEAR AND INTERACTION FROM LAND
    AS THE PRIMARY CAUSES. INTENSITY IS BASED ON ESTIMATES FROM PGTW AND
    RJTD. ANIMATED INFRARED IMAGERY DEPICTS DEEP CONVECTION OVER THE LOW
    LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) AND TO THE WEST OF THE LLCC. POORLY
    DEFINED CONVECTIVE BANDING IS SEEN WRAPPING AROUND THE SOUTHERN
    FLANK AND INTO THE EASTERN SIDE OF THE CENTER. POSITION CONFIDENCE
    IS LOW DUE TO OROGRAPHIC EFFECTS ON THE SHAPE OF THE CONVECTION AND
    THE SHAPE OF THE SYSTEM. SCATTEROMETER AND MICROWAVE DATA IS
    CURRENTLY CONTAMINATED DUE TO PROXIMITY TO LAND..
