Manila: Typhoon Tino (international name Kalmaegi) continues to impact parts of the Visayas with its strong winds and heavy rains as it progresses westward towards Cebu, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA). According to Philippines News Agency, the typhoon made its second landfall at approximately 5:10 a.m. in Borbon, Cebu, as reported by weather specialist Chenel Dominguez during a press briefing. Currently, Tino is traversing the landmass over the Negros Island Region and parts of Western Visayas. The center of Tino's eye was located over the coastal waters of San Francisco, Cebu, with maximum sustained winds of 150 km/h near the center and gusts reaching up to 205 km/h. It is moving westward at 25 km/h, with typhoon-force winds extending outward up to 300 km from the center. Earlier, Tino made its first landfall in Silago, Southern Leyte at midnight. Several areas have been placed under various Tropical Cyclone Wind Signals (TCWS), with T CWS No. 4 affecting parts of Leyte, Cebu, Bohol, Negros, Guimaras, Iloilo, and Antique. Other regions are under TCWS No. 3, No. 2, and No. 1, with differing levels of warning based on proximity to the typhoon's path. PAGASA has warned of potential flash floods or landslides in Palawan, Western Visayas, Negros Island Region, and Central Visayas due to the heavy rains. Other regions such as Eastern Visayas, Northern Mindanao, Albay, Sorsogon, Masbate, and the rest of Mimaropa will experience rains with gusty winds. Metro Manila and surrounding areas will see cloudy skies with scattered rains and isolated thunderstorms due to the shear line, while the northeast monsoon will affect Ilocos Region, Cordillera Administrative Region, and the rest of Cagayan Valley. Tino is expected to move through the Visayas and northern Palawan, emerging over the West Philippine Sea by Wednesday morning and exiting the Philippine Area of Responsibility by Wednesday evening or Thursday morning. While the terrain may slightly weake n Tino, it is expected to remain at typhoon strength during its journey across the country. In addition, a low-pressure area (LPA) is being monitored outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility, with a high potential of developing into a tropical depression within the next 24 hours. This LPA is located 2,165 km east of northeastern Mindanao as of 2 a.m. Tuesday.
