Moderate to occasionally heavy rains will be experienced within the 400 km diameter of the Severe Tropical Storm.

Despite its exit, the weather system will continue to enhance the southwest monsoon that will bring light up to heavy rains over Luzon and Western Visayas particularly the provinces of Pangasinan, Zambales, Bataan, Cavite, Batangas and Mindoro, Pagasa said.

The weather bureau still warned of risky sea travel over the western seaboard of Northern Luzon. Frances Mangosing
