Weather Update: Typhoon Neneng might enter PAR on Friday

InterAksyon reported on Thursday (October 2) that Typhoon Phanfone (local name Neneng) might enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) on Friday. However, PAGASA clarified that the rain in Luzon-particularly in Metro Manila-are not the effects of this new storm.

PAGASA weather forecaster Gladys Saludes said of the storm, "Hahatak ito ng habagat na makaka-apekto sa Mindanao at Visayas. Sa Luzon naman, wind convergence ang mangyayari [dahil sa mahahatak na hangin mula sa West Philippine Sea]."

Saludes added that the public should still be prepared for isolated rain showers and thunder storms on Thursday afternoon or evening.
