“KARDING” INTENSIFIES INTO A TROPICAL STORM HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND AREAS
Heavy Rainfall
- The passage of KARDING may bring heavy rains over Northern and Central Luzon beginning late Saturday or Sunday morning. Under these conditions, isolated to scattered flooding (including flash floods) and rain-induced landslides are possible, especially in areas that are highly or very highly susceptible to these hazards as identified in hazard maps and in localities with significant antecedent rainfall.
Severe Winds
- The current track and intensity forecast shows a high likelihood that Tropical Cyclone Wind Signals will be hoisted over Northern Luzon and some portions of Central Luzon. The highest possible wind signal that may be hoisted is TCWS #3. Localities in the eastern portions of Northern and Central Luzon may be placed under TCWS #1 as early as Friday evening or early Saturday morning.
HAZARDS AFFECTING COASTAL WATERS
- KARDING may bring moderate to rough seas (1.2 to 3.8 m) over the seaboards of Northern and the eastern seaboard of Central Luzon beginning Sunday. Such conditions may be risky for those using small seacrafts. Mariners are advised to take precautionary measures when venturing out to sea and continue monitoring for updates.
TRACK AND INTENSITY OUTLOOK
- Tropical Storm KARDING will begin to move slowly westward this late afternoon or evening. On the forecast track, the tropical cyclone is forecast to maintain its westward movement while accelerating until it makes landfall in the vicinity of the east coast of Isabela or Cagayan on Sunday. Afterwards, the center of KARDING will traverse the rugged terrain of Northern Luzon before emerging over the West Philippine Sea on Monday.
- KARDING intensified into a tropical storm at 2:00PM today. This tropical cyclone is forecast to continue to intensify while moving over the Philippine Sea and may reach the severe tropical storm category before its landfall.
| Place | Weather Condition | Caused By | Impacts |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zambales, Bataan, Occidental Mindoro, and Northern Palawan including Cuyo Island | Cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms | Southwest Monsoon | Possible flash floods or landslides due to moderate to, at times, heavy rains |

Department of Education (DepEd) Class Suspension Guideline:

- In the absence of storm signal warnings, LGU are expected to announce whole-day class cancellations no later than 4:30AM or half-day class suspensions no later than 11:00AM.
- Storm signal warning declared by PAGASA between 10:00pm and 4:30AM reflects the whole day cancellation of classes in appropriate levels in the affected areas.
- Storm signal warnings declared by PAGASA by 11:00AM automatically suspend the same day’s afternoon classes at appropriate levels in the affected areas.
*Suspension of classes for the tertiary level (colleges and universities) will be at the discretion of school management.
