PORMAL nang idineklara ng Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) ang simula ng panahon ng tag-ulan.
“The occurrence of scattered rainshowers, frequent thunderstorms, the passage of Typhoon Aghon, and the southwest monsoon (habagat) over the past few days have brought significant rains over the western sections of Luzon and Visayas signifies the start of the rainy season in the country,” ayon sa press release ng weather bureau.
Dahil dito, hinimok ng PAGASA ang publiko na panatilihing imaging handa sa epekto ng tag-ulan, habagat at ang nakaambang La Niña, gaya ng matinding pagbaha at landslide.
“The high chance of La Niña conditions to develop by the July-August-September period increases the likelihood of above-normal rainfall conditions in some areas of the country, especially towards the end of the year,” ayon kay PAGASA Administrator Nathaniel Servando.
