Tropical Storm Pedring intensifies, PAGASA warns public on heavy rains

Tropical Storm Pedring (International Name: NESA) intensifies and the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services (Pagasa) has declared several provinces under Signal # 3. With the latest updates, Pedring is now moving West NorthWest at 19kph with a maximum sustained winds of 130 kilometers per hour.

According to Nathaniel Servando, Tropical Storm Pedring might have 25 to 30 percent of the rainfall of September 2009's devastating typhoon, Ondoy (Ketsana).


Check on the list below below on what PSWS number is your current location now:

Signal # 3 is up in the following areas: Catanduanes, Camarines Sur, Camarines Norte, Northern Quezon including Polillo Island, Aurora, Quirino and Isabela.

Signal # 2: Albay including Burias Island, Sorsogon, Rest of Quezon, Rizal, Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, Nueva Vizcaya, Ifugao, Benguet, Mt. Province, Kalinga, Cagayan and Metro Manila.

What it means if your location is under Signal number 3?
A Pagasa bulletin says Signal # 3 may mean "heavy damage to agriculture, some large trees uprooted, majority of nipa and cogon houses unroofed or destroyed, considerable damage to structures of light to medium construction, moderate to heavy disruption of electrical power and communication services.

At signal number 2, during a tropical storm, will mean suspension of classes up to high school level on the affected areas.
