The 2 to 5-day Long-Range Forecast shows the system at its closest point of approach (CPA) to Bicol Region - about 385 km. NE of Metro Naga/CWC on Friday afternoon, with Category 3 strength of 185 kph near the eye...and shall move closer to the coast of Cagayan with a distance of only 120 km. NE of the northeastern tip of Luzon. PARMA shall be very close to the Batanes Islands...about 75 km. to the east of Basco on Monday morning, Oct 5 - with Category 4 strength of 215 kph near the eye. 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.
