Tropical Storm “Dindo” (international name: Doksuri) was moving out of the country and expected to head towards southern China, the state weather bureau said Friday.

The rains swelled rivers and triggered landslides in Ilocos Norte, while the governor of Isabela took a step further in preventing storm-related deaths by imposing a liquor ban after noting that drowning cases in past calamities were drunk.

Tropical Storm “Dindo” (International name “Doksuri”) will not make a landfall but will directly hit Babuyan Islands and Batanes Islands at the northern tip of Luzon, the state weather bureau said Thursday.

Public storm signal No. 1 has been raised over the provinces of Cagayan and Isabela as Tropical Storm “Dindo” heads towards extreme northern Luzon.
