00:00How are you doing with the monitoring in Baguio-Leon?
00:03And this morning, we will be live with Channel Dominguez, weather specialist from Pagasa.
00:09Good morning.
00:13Channel, good morning.
00:15Good morning to you, and good morning to our viewers.
00:20Compared to the past few days when we just entered the PIR,
00:24Baguio-Leon's earthquake has already spread.
00:27Can you tell us if this is wider than the one in Baguio-Christine?
00:31Yes, if we can remember, the one in Christine is very wide.
00:37Its radius reached up to 700 kilometers.
00:41But if we compare it to the one in Leon, it is only 680 kilometers wide.
00:48So if we compare it, the one in Christine is still wider.
00:53What are the reasons why Baguio-Leon's earthquake was strong?
00:58Yes, if we can remember, if we compare it to Christine,
01:02Christine had a landfall scenario.
01:06That's why it had an interaction with the land.
01:09That's why it stayed as a severe tropical storm.
01:12But Leon, it continues to rise in the sea.
01:16And now, it is in favorable conditions.
01:20That's why it continues to grow stronger.
01:24Can you explain to us the rapid intensification of an earthquake?
01:30Yes, this rapid intensification we call it
01:34is when its upgrade to the next category is fast within the next 24 hours.
01:41Can we say that we will experience that in Baguio-Leon?
01:45Yes, we will experience that because we can see
01:49that it is like a typhoon.
01:55Is the chance of an earthquake or landfall in Batanes still high?
02:00And when can we expect this?
02:02As we can see, the closest approach is tomorrow,
02:06early in the afternoon here in Batanes.
02:10Now, we can see that we are not avoiding the landfall scenario here in Batanes.
02:16But we can also expect that even if it does not landfall here in Batanes,
02:21we can expect strong winds and heavy rains here in Baguio-Leon.
02:27For the upcoming weekend,
02:32what can we expect?
02:34Will there be heavy rains, strong winds, or a combination of the two?
02:38For Metro Manila, we can expect that we will experience
02:43improving weather on Monday.
02:46But we can also expect that there will be quick rains like localized thunderstorms.
02:51But for our countrymen, especially here in Northern Luzon,
02:55we can still expect the effects of Leon because of its rain bands
03:01or its trough or extension.
03:04Thank you very much. Good morning, Ms. Chellal Dominguez from Pagasa.
03:09Take care.
