At least 1 more storm to enter PH before yearend: PAGASA

On Sunday, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said that at least 1 more storm is forecast to enter the Philippines before 2020 ends.

However, no storm will dampen Christmas said PAGASA weather forecaster Chris Perez.

We’re expecting bagyo-free po tayo ngayong darating na week, including sa holidays po,

said Perez.

So far, we’re not ruling out, bago matapos ang taon, posibleng meron pang isa, at least. Pwede pa pong mabago yun,

he added.

Tropical depression Vicky had caused flooding and landslides in some parts of the Visayas and Mindanao over the weekend, leaving at least 6 people dead.

Vicky was the Philippines' 22nd tropical cyclone for 2020, exceeding the yearly average of 20 and the 1st for December. 

It is forecast to leave the Philippine area of responsibility between Sunday afternoon and evening, PAGASA said.
