03:47before the water level rose again.
03:50According to the forecast,
03:52the rainy season in the whole country
03:54may last until tomorrow.
03:56This is the effect of different weather systems
03:58such as shearline
04:00or the cold wind from the northeast
04:02and the hot wind from the east.
04:04The northeast monsoon
04:06makes it rain in Northern Luzon
04:08and ITCC.
04:10ITCC or Intertropical Convergence Zone
04:12affects the eastern part of Mindanao.
04:14However,
04:16the axis of the shearline may rise
04:18and we expect
04:20that it may affect
04:22the eastern section
04:24of Northern Luzon.
04:26We expect Cagayan Valley
04:28to be rainy the next days.
04:32In the southern part,
04:34ITCC may bring rain
04:36even tomorrow.
04:39We'll see if it will happen in the succeeding days.

05:05in Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur,
05:07Catanuanes, Albay, Sorsogon
05:09and other parts of Visayas and Mindanao.
05:11According to Pagasa,
05:13the Intertropical Convergence Zone
05:15affects the country.
05:17We expect heavy to intense rains
05:19in Central and Southern Luzon
05:21and in the eastern section of Mindanao.

05:25of Metro Weather,
05:27we expect heavy to torrential rains
05:29in Cagayan,
05:31Isabela, Aurora, Quirino,
05:33Ifugao and Nueva Ecija.
05:35In Visayas, we expect heavy to torrential rains
05:37in Leyte, Iloilo and Aklan.
05:39There is also a chance of heavy to torrential rains
05:41in the afternoon and evening in Mindanao.
05:43Here in Metro Manila,
05:45the possibility of thunderstorms is still there.
05:50Unlike in May,
05:52there is a total ban on the online sale
05:54of illegal fireworks.
05:56Aside from that, the police is also monitoring
05:58illegal fireworks and videos
06:00that show how it is done.
06:02Chino Gaston has a report.
06:05This is how many fireworks
06:07were caught by the police
06:09in the province of Rizal.
06:11There are 400 of them
06:13that were destroyed simultaneously yesterday.
06:17These fireworks
06:19are not far from the improvised fireworks
06:21that were used by these kids
06:23in Manila last week.
06:27The kids said
06:29that they learned how to make fireworks
06:31on TikTok.
06:34We want to warn
06:36everyone
06:38that you are about to face
06:40a serious case because
06:42it has been banned for a long time.
06:44PNP wants to strengthen
06:46cyber patrolling against these tutorial videos.
06:48Improvised fireworks
06:50such as fireworks can cause
06:52eye injury, blindness,
06:54burn of the skin
06:56and wound that can lead to amputation
06:58or cut in the body.
07:00In the monitoring of the Department of Health
07:02on December 25,
07:04fireworks are the number one cause
07:06of firecracker-related injuries.
07:08We want to remind our parents
07:10to monitor and supervise
07:12our children.
07:14Do not allow them
07:16to use fireworks.
07:20There is no escape
07:22from the entrapment operation of PNP ACG.
07:24These two are selling
07:26online illegal fireworks
07:28such as King Kong and Tuna.
07:31The sale of illegal fireworks
07:33online is now a problem
07:35according to the Philippine Pyrotechnics Manufacturers
07:37and Dealers Association, Inc.
07:39They say the sales are higher
07:41now compared to the past
07:43when there was a total ban.
07:45Usually, you can see that it is illegal
07:47on Facebook because
07:49they don't have a license
07:51to do it.
07:53They are now illegal
07:55and what they sell is still illegal.
07:57Now that it's raining,
07:59where did the fireworks go?
08:01There is a chemical
08:03in the fireworks
08:05that causes
08:07self-explosions when it dries.
08:09When it's wet,
08:11you can't just throw it in the trash?
08:13Yes, because later,
08:15it might catch fire.

10:41We are happy because we are together.
10:43When it rains, it is a blessing for us.
10:45So, like when Christ was born,
10:47I think it is a blessing for us.
10:49And of course, when Antipolo is said,
10:51it is a blessing for us.
10:53It is okay, ma'am,
