Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said that Metro Manila, the rest of Luzon, Visayas, Zamboanga Peninsula, Northern Mindanao, Basilan, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi will have cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms due to the trough of Kristine with the possibility that flash floods or landslides will occur due to moderate to heavy rains.

 

Rains with gusty winds due to Kristine with the possibility that flash floods or landslides will occur in Bicol Region, Eastern Visayas, Isabela, Quirino, Aurora, and Quezon due to moderate to heavy with at times intense rains. Minimal to minor threat to lives and properties may occur due to strong winds.

 

The rest of Mindanao will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms also due to the trough of Kristine. Flash floods or landslides may occur during severe thunderstorms.

 

"Kristine is forecast to move northwestward to west northwestward until Thursday (24 October) before turning westward for the rest of the forecast period." It may make landfall over Isabela on Wednesday evening and may exit the Philippine Area of Responsibility by Friday evening.

 

"Since this tropical cyclone is still over the Philippine Sea, rapid intensification is not ruled out given the favorable environmental conditions," said PAGASA.
