Rainy days for Cebu

CEBU will experience some rains this week due to the presence of an intertropical convergence zone and a low pressure area located 600 km off Eastern Samar.

Mactan analyst Al Quiblat of the state weather bureau Pagasa said based on their projections, the low pressure area can develop into a typhoon that they will name “Sendong.”

Quiblat said the abnormal cooling at the Eastern and Central Pacific Ocean since August this month may lead to a new La Niña in the country next month.

Residents of landslide and flood-prone areas are advised to relocate or seek higher ground. Fishermen were also advised not to sail if they spot rainclouds hanging over the sea. Correspondent Fe Marie Dumaboc
