Nagbabala na ang PAGASA sa mga residente ng Catanduanes dahil sa nalalapit nang pagtama sa lupa ng Typhoon Rolly ngayong umaga.
“Catanduanes is under extremely dangerous situation as Typhoon Rolly is now hours from landfall over the province,” ayon sa PAGASA 2:00am severe weather bulletin.
Sa susunod na 12-oras asahan daw ang malalakas na hangin at ulan sa buong lalawigan, pati na sa Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, Albay at timog na bahagi ng Quezon, na pare-pareho nang nasa ilalim ng Signal No. 4.
“This a particularly dangerous situation for these areas.”
Napalapit pa sa 110-kilometer silangan, hilagang-silangan ng Virac ang mata ng bagyo nang huli itong matamaan nitong ala-1:00 ng madaling araw.
Kumikilos si “Rolly” patungong kanluran, timog-kanluran sa bilis na 25-kilometers per hour.
Nananatili naman ang lakas ng hangin nito sa 215-kilometers per hour, at pagbugsong nasa 265-kilometers per hour.
Inaasahang mananalasa ang bagyo sa Catanduanes at Camarines Sur sa buong umaga ng Linggo. Pagdating naman ng hapon ay asahan ang pagdating nito sa Quezon.
“After crossing the CALABARZON area, the center of “ROLLY” is forecast to exit the mainland Luzon landmass and emerge over the Philippine Sea on tomorrow early morning.”
Binigyang diin ng state-weather bureau ang paalala para mag-ingat ang mga nakatira malapit sa flood at landslide prone areas. Pati na ang mga nasa tabing dagat laban sa banta ng mataas na storm surge o daluyong ng alon.
“There is also a moderate to high risk of seiche or storm surge over the coastal areas surrounding Laguna de Bay and Taal Lake. These storm surges, which may be accompanied by swells and breaking waves reaching the coast can cause life-threatening and damaging coastal inundation.”
