In the Tuesday evening update issued by Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), Typhoon Falcon has already entered the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR).
Within the 300-kilometer radius of the typhoon, “heavy to at times intense” rainfall could be expected, the state weather bureau said.
However, there is no public storm warning signal yet.
In its 9:00 p.m. heavy rainfall warning, also on Tuesday, Pagasa raised a yellow warning for Metro Manila, Bataan, Rizal (Rodriguez, San Mateo, Antipolo, Angono, Taytay, and Cainta), Cavite (Sangley, Bacoor, Imus, Rosario, Tanza, Naic, Ternate, and nearby areas), and Batangas (Nasugbu).
But Pagasa eventually terminated the heavy rainfall warning for those areas by its 12:00 a.m. advisory on Wednesday.
