Issued at 5:00 PM, 09 September 2022
Valid for broadcast until the next bulletin at 11:00 PM today
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND AREAS
•Heavy Rainfall
Aside from rain showers caused by its trough, Severe Tropical Storm INDAY remains less likely to bring heavy rains in the country throughout the forecast period.
•Severe Winds
The latest forecast scenario for INDAY shows that the hoisting of Tropical Cyclone Wind Signals over any land area in the country remains unlikely.
HAZARDS AFFECTING COASTAL WATERS
INDAY may bring moderate to rough seas over the seaboards of Batanes (2.0 to 4.0 m) and Babuyan Islands (1.5 to 3.0 m) beginning mid to late Saturday. These conditions may be risky for those using small seacrafts. Mariners are advised to monitor for updates, take precautionary measures when venturing out to sea and, if possible, avoid navigating in these conditions during the said period.
TRACK AND INTENSITY OUTLOOK
• Severe Tropical Storm INDAY is forecast to move generally northwestward over the Philippine Sea until Sunday before tuning more north northwestward or northward over the sea east of Taiwan while decelerating. On the track forecast, this tropical cyclone may exit the Philippine Area of Responsibility early next week.
• INDAY may reach typhoon category within the next 24 hours. Further intensification is forecast to occur until Sunday or early Monday as INDAY tracks northwestward over the Philippine Sea. However, the slightly cooler waters east of Taiwan and the forecast slow-down period over this sea area may result in a weakening trend beginning on Monday.
Considering these developments, the public and disaster risk reduction and management offices concerned are advised to take all necessary measures to protect life and property. Persons living in areas identified to be highly or very highly susceptible to these hazards are advised to follow evacuation and other instructions from local officials. For heavy rainfall warnings, thunderstorm/rainfall advisories, and other severe weather information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your local PAGASA Regional Services Division.
The next tropical cyclone bulletin will be issued at 11:00 PM today.
