Sa laing bahin, mao ni karon ang latest satellite image gikan sa PAG-ASA. Makita nato si Emong nga tua na sa taas nga bahin padung sa Japan ug sa West Philippine Sea naa usa ka cloud cluster nga usa ka LPA (LPA 94W). Matud pa sa nagkalain lain nga weather models si LPA 94W mahimong usa ka bagjo. In fact, ang JMA giupgrade na ang mao nga LPA ngadto sa usa ka Tropical Depression.



Matud sa Japan Meteorological Agency, ang dagan ni LPA 94W padung sa Vietnam-China boundary. Mao ni ang ilahang forecast:



Sa laing bahin, matud sa JTWC ang mao nga LPA may medium chance pa of formation into a torpical cyclone within the next 24 hours. Pero expected na pud nga iupgrade na nila ning ilahang forecast. Mao ni ilahang model sa pagkakaron:

PAGASA: Tropical depression Emong to affect PHL until Friday

Tropical Depression Emong will affect parts of the Philippines until at least Friday, state weather forecasters said at the start of the week.

PAGASA forecaster Jun Galang also said they are monitoring a cloud formation that could become a low-pressure area off Ilocos later this week.

"[Ang epekto nito] itong buong week hanggang Friday. Kung walang pagbabago by Thursday makakalabas ng Philippine area of responsibility," Galang said in a Monday interview on dzBB radio.

While Tropical Depression Emong was too far to directly affect any part of the country, it would enhance the southwest monsoon, which will bring rain mainly to Luzon and Visayas.

He also said that as Emong moved northward, the weather in Mindanao would gradually improve while Luzon and Visayas can expect more rain.

Meanwhile, Galang said there was a chance a low-pressure area would form off Laoag in Ilocos Norte province later this week.

"Papalabas siya may chance mabuo na LPA west ng Laoag, makakadagdag sa epekto ng habagat," he said.

Emong

PAGASA's 5 a.m. bulletin said that as of 4 a.m. Monday, Emong was estimated to be 300 km east of Virac, Catanduanes.

It had maximum sustained winds of 55 kph near the center and was forecast to move north-northwest at 13 kph.

"Mimaropa, Bicol region, Visayas, northern Mindanao and Caraga will experience cloudy skies with moderate to occasionally heavy rain showers and thunderstorms which may trigger flash floods and landslides," it said.

It added Metro Manila and Ilocos, Calabarzon, Zambales and Bataan and the rest of Mindanao will be cloudy with light to moderate rain showers and thunderstorms.

The rest of Luzon will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms, it said.

PAGASA also said moderate to strong winds from the southwest to southeast will prevail over Luzon and coming from the southwest to west over Visayas and Mindanao.

The coastal waters throughout the archipelago will be moderate to rough. â€" DVM, GMA News

PAGASA: Potential cyclone threatens west Luzon, Visayas with floods, landslides

Flash floods and landslides threaten the western parts of Luzon and Visayas Thursday as a  low-pressure area, just outside the Philippine area of responsibility enhances the southwest monsoon, state weather forecasters said.

PAGASA forecaster Gener Quitlong said their models show the LPA intensifying into a cyclone. However, it is not likely to enter the Philippine area of responsibility and may instead move toward Vietnam.

"Nagpapalakas ito ng habagat," Quitlong said in an interview on dzBB radio.

But if the LPA intensifies into a cyclone and enters the Philippine Area of Responsibility, it will be codenamed Emong, he said.

Thursday outlook

For Thursday, PAGASA said the southwest monsoon is affecting the western sections of Luzon and Visayas.

"Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Western Visayas and the provinces of Zambales and Bataan will experience cloudy skies with moderate to occasionally heavy rain showers and thunderstorms which may trigger flash floods and landslides," it said in its 5 a.m. bulletin.

It added Zamboanga Peninsula, Northern Mindanao and the rest of Luzon and of Visayas will be cloudy with light to moderate rain showers and thunderstorms.

The rest of Mindanao will have partly cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms, it added.

Also, moderate to strong winds from the southwest to south will prevail over the western sections of Luzon and Visayas and the coastal waters along these areas will be moderate to rough.

Light to moderate winds coming from the southeast to south will prevail over the rest of Luzon and Visayas and from the northeast to north over Mindanao with slight to moderate seas. â€" DVM/ELR, GMA News

Ug karon, usa ka LPA ang nahimugso sa West Philippine Sea ug gibana bana nga kining mao nga LPA makaapektar sa Wester ug Southern Luzon areas gikan ugma June 12 hangtud na sa June 13. Ang mao nga LPA magdagan pa north-norhteast east ug gamay pa ang chance nga mahimong bagjo.

Ang mao nga LPA pakusgon ang HAbagat nga moresulta sa mga pag-uwan uwan sa mga lugar sa Luzon.

Sa Mindanao, pagkakaron, usa ka bagang panganod nga may dang uwan ang naa karon sa Misamis, Bukidnon, Cotabato ug Davao areas. Mag amping kay mobaha na pud unja dihaa.

Karong June 16, base sa weather models usa pud ka LPA ang mosud sa PAR diha sa may east of Mindanao nga magdala ug makusog nga uwan. Kani nga LPA giforecast nga mointensify ug mahimong bagjo kung dili magbag-o ang models karon.

MANILA, Philippines â€" Tropical storm “Dante” (international name: Yagi) increased its speed as it continued to move away from the Philippine territory on Monday, the state weather bureau said.

The center of storm “Dante” was last observed 1,030 kilometers northeast of Basco, Batanes as of 4a.m., the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration said.

“Dante” packed maximum sustained winds of 75 kilometers per hour near the center and gusts of up to 90 kph. It is forecast to move north northeast at 15 kph.

Although too far to directly affect any part of the country, “Dante” will continue to enhance the southwest windflow that will bring rains and thunderstorms particularly over the western sections of Southern Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
Pagasa clarified, however, that it is not officially rainy season yet.

“Mimaropa, Bicol region and Western Visayas will experience cloudy skies with light to moderate rainshowers and thunderstorms. Metro Manila and the rest of the country will be partly cloudy to cloudy with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms mostly in the afternoon or evening,” Pagasa said in its weather bulletin.

Moderate to strong winds blowing from the southwest to west will prevail over Extreme Northern Luzon and its coastal waters will be moderate to rough. Elsewhere, winds will be moderate to occasionally strong coming from the southwest with moderate to occasionally rough seas, it added.

INQUIRER.net

MANILA, Philippinesâ€"Although tropical storm Dante (international name: Yagi) made its way out of the Philippine area of responsibility on Monday night, parts of the country, especially the western sections of Luzon and the Visayas, are likely to experience rains on Tuesday due to a weak southwest monsoon, the state weather bureau said.
“Mimaropa (Occidental and Oriental Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon and Palawan), Calabarzon (Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal and Quezon), Bicol Region, the Visayas and the provinces of Bataan, Zambales and Pangasinan will experience cloudy skies with light to moderate rainshowers and thunderstorms,” the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration, or Pagasa, said.

On Monday, Pagasa declared the onset of the rainy season. The southwest monsoon is the prevailing weather system during this season.

Metro Manila cloudy

Meanwhile, Metro Manila and the rest of the country will be partly cloudy to cloudy with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms mostly in the afternoon or evening, Pagasa said.

Moderate to strong winds blowing from the southwest to west will prevail over extreme northern Luzon and its coastal waters will be moderate to rough. Elsewhere winds will be light to moderate coming from the southwest with slight to moderate seas, Pagasa added.

Flash flood warning up in Bicol, Eastern Visayas

Flash floods and landslides may be expected in parts of Bicol and Eastern Visayas in the next 24 hours from the inter-tropical convergence zone (ITCZ), state weather forecasters said Wednesday afternoon.

In its 5 p.m. bulletin, PAGASA said the ITCZ is affecting the Bicol region, Visayas and Mindanao, and may bring moderate to heavy rain.

"Bicol region and Eastern Visayas will experience cloudy skies with moderate to occasionally heavy rain and thunderstorms which may trigger flash floods and landslides," it said.

Calabarzon, Mimaropa, the rest of Visayas and Mindanao will have cloudy skies with light to moderate rain showers and thunderstorms, it added.

Also, PAGASA said Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon will be "partly cloudy with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms mostly in the afternoon or evening."

On Thursday, Metro Manila may expect temperatures of 25 to 34 degrees Celsius while Tuguegarao City may expect temperatures of 25 to 37 degrees Celsius.

Angeles and Olongapo Cities may expect temperatures of 25 to 33 degrees Celsius.

Meanwhile, PAGASA said light to moderate winds from the east to southeast will prevail over Northern and Central Luzon and coming from the east to northeast over the rest of the country.

The coastal waters throughout the archipelago will be slight to moderate, it added. â€" TJD, GMA News

PAGASA: Potential cyclone nears PHL, poses threat to Mindanao

A potential cycloneâ€"a low-pressure areaâ€"is now inside the Philippine area of responsibility and may pose a threat to Mindanao, state weather forecasters said Thursday.

PAGASA forecaster Alvin Pura said the LPA formed inside the Philippine area of responsibility Thursday morning and is embedded in the inter-tropical convergence zone.

"'Yung inaasahang LPA nabuo na. Nariyan nakapaloob sa ITCZ ... sa loob na ito," Pura said in an interview on dzBB radio.

But he said there is still no storm signal raised yet, though the LPA has a good chance of intensifying into a cyclone.

Should it become a cyclone, it will be locally codenamed Dante. However, PAGASA forecaster Joey Figuracion earlier said their models show the cyclone may veer north toward the Taiwan area.

"Kung napunta sa area ng Pacific papuntang Japan, pwede maging ganap na bagyo," Pura said.

Threat to Mindanao

Meanwhile, PAGASA's 11 a.m. advisory said the LPA and the ITCZ may trigger flash floods and landslides in Mindanao.

It said that as of 8 a.m., the LPA was estimated at 580 km east of Hinatuan, Surigao Del Sur, embedded in the ITCZ.

"These weather systems will affect Bicol region, Visayas and Mindanao," it said, adding the whole Mindanao "will experience cloudy skies with moderate to heavy rains and thunderstorms which may trigger flash floods and landslides."

"Residents in these areas are advised to take all the necessary precautionary measures," it added.

Davao floods

Some residents of Davao City were preemptively evacuated from their homes Wednesday night as heavy rain caused floods in several parts of the city.

The water level at Balusong River started to overflow as of 10:30 p.m., said the city government's disaster risk reduction and management council in a post on its Facebook page.

It also noted persistent rain in the uplands.

No one was initially reported injured or missing in the wake of the floods.

PAGASA had said the rainy season has not officially begun, but added a low-pressure area approaching from the east may enter the Philippine area of responsibility this weekend and likely trigger the rainy season.

Magnitude 5.7 quake hits N. Cotabato

ABS-CBNnews.com
Posted at 06/03/2013 7:15 AM | Updated as of 06/03/2013 7:15 AM
MANILA â€" Another magnitude 5.7 earthquake hit North Cotabato on Monday morning, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) said.

Phivolcs said the epicenter of the earthquake was located 17 kilometers northwest of Carmen town at 4:08 a.m.

The following earthquake intensities were felt:

Intensity VI - Carmen (North Cotabato)
Intensity V - Kabacan (North Cotabato)
Intensity IV - Matalam (North Cotabato)
Intensity III - Kidapawan City; Cagayan de Oro City; Davao City; Pres. Roxas, Arakan, Magpet and Makilala (North Cotabato)
Intensity I - Butuan City
Phivolcs describes Intensity VI as "very strong." Under this category, "some people lose their balance. Motorists feel like driving in flat tires. Heavy objects or furniture move or may be shifted. Small church bells may ring. Wall plaster may crack.

"Very old or poorly built houses and man-made structures are slightly damaged though well-built structures are not affected. Limited rockfalls and rolling boulders occur in hilly to mountainous areas and escarpments. Trees are noticeably shaken."

The quake was tectonic in origin. It had a depth of 3 kilometers.

Phivolcs said aftershocks and damage are expected.

Last Saturday, a similar 5.7-magnitude earthquake shook Carmen, North Cotabato, leaving at least 8 wounded and several houses damaged.

Phivolcs Executive Director Renato Solidum said at least 80 aftershocks have occurred since the quake hit the province.

Temperatures begin to cool, says Pagasa
By Frances Mangosing
INQUIRER.net

MANILA, Philippinesâ€"Temperatures are starting to cool as rainy season nears, the state weather bureau said.
In Metro Manila, the highest temperature on Thursday was recorded at 29.2 degrees Celsius at 8:30 a.m., the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration said.

The highest temperature for summer this year in Metro Manila was recorded at 36.6 degrees Celsius last April.
But Alvin Pura, weather forecaster of Pagasa, said the easterlies is still the prevailing weather system. The easterlies is the weather system for summer.

He said the rains experienced all over the country is only part of the transition to the rainy season.

The southwest monsoon or hanging habagat is the dominant weather system during the rainy season.

Pura said the rainy season may be declared as early as first week of June provided the criteria for the rainy season have been met, which includes a  rainfall of 25 millimeters over five days, with three successive days of at least 1 millimeter of rain.

Meanwhile, an intertropical convergence zone in Palawan and Mindanao will bring light to moderate rains and thunderstorms in Central Luzon, Metro Manila, Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Western Visayas and Mindanao, Pagasa’s bulletin said.
The rest of the country will be partly cloudy to cloudy with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms mostly over the western section, it added.

Light to moderate winds blowing from the east to southeast will prevail over Luzon and Visayas and from the south to southeast over Mindanao. The coastal waters throughout the archipelago will be light to moderate, it also said.

May 31, 2013, 01:58:52 PM


The immortal jellyfish (turritopsis nutricula) has to be item one on this list because of the fact that it is immortal. That isn’t hyperbole â€" it really is immortal. After reaching sexual maturity, this jellyfish is able to reverse its aging process and become a polyp again. The ability to reverse the life cycle is probably unique in the animal kingdom, and allows the jellyfish to bypass death, rendering the Turritopsis nutricula biologically immortal. Lab tests showed that 100% of specimens reverted to the polyp stage.

Have you ever wondered what Chin Chin Gutierrez is up to these days? We may not have heard anything about her for a few years now. But the award-winning actress is not in a temporary hibernation because she is pregnant, she is married, or she is living abroad. Months ago, rumors have surfaced that Gutierrez is hiding somewhere in Tagaytay City in Cavite because she is aiming to be a nun.

Well, by now, it is confirmed. The 42-year old actress has decided to embrace the vocation that not many women are even considering. The reports are true. Gutierrez is now living within the quarters of the Carmelite Sisters because she wants to be a nun. This is not for reel but for real. She is not making another movie or TV show. She is living real life.

Who may have inspired her to enter the convent? According to reliable sources, it is possible that she took the inspiration from her mom, who used to be a nun before marrying and giving birth to her. Gutierrez could have also drawn inspiration from other people who may have a strong influence on her. She may not be able to grant a media interview to personally confirm this news but people who know her more want to disseminate the good news about the actress these days.

Gutierrez is one of the nieces of former sexy actress Lita Gutierrez, who made a name for herself during the LVN Pictures days way back in the 1960s. Lita was a contemporary of Luz Valdes and Caridad Sanchez, who are both still active in the local show business. They were all contemporaries of Delia Razon as well, who may not be presently visible but is very much connected to showbiz through her granddaughter Carla Abellana.

Gutierrez entered showbiz after she obtained her college degree from Maryknoll College, now Miriam College. It was 1991 when she did her first movie ‘Onyong Majikero.’ Her first TV role was as Maria Clara in the CCP-produced mini-series ‘Noli me Tangere,’ aired over then ABC-5, now TV5.

In 1995, she won the Best Supporting Actress award from Gawad Urian for her role in the 1994 Manila Filmfest entry ‘Maalaala Mo Kaya: The Movie.’ In 1996, she won the Best Actress award from the first ever Asian Television Award. In 1998, she won another Asian Television Award as Best Supporting Actress.

The last showbiz controversy that involved her was in 2009, when she played the role of an antagonist in the teleserye ‘Dahil May Isang Ikaw.’ There were reports that her co-star Lorna Tolentino filed a complaint against her in ABS-CBN for allegedly hurting her (Tolentino) for real in a confrontation scene in their TV drama. Tolentino reportedly vowed not to work with her again after her painful experience.

Gutierrez is not the first actress who has turned her back on showbiz just to enter the convent. Several decades ago, actress Aida Roxas also did the same. She was forced to resign several years after she joined the convent because of her then failing health. Nothing has been heard of Roxas ever since.

By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
5/27/2013
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The worst clashes were between CRS riot police and hooded right-wing "ultras" around famous monuments including Les Invalides, where Napoleon Bonaparte is buried. "Traditional France has been threatened by these new measures and that's why we have taken to the streets," one protestor said. "The violence highlights the frustration we feel at having been betrayed by liberal politicians."

Hundreds threw rocks and smoke bombs at the police, who responded in kind with tear gas and baton charges. Both sides suffered serious injuries, with the worst fights breaking out on the grass esplanade opposite Les Invalides, and in surrounding streets. Two journalists were also seriously injured.

The area is next door to the French parliament, where President Francois Hollande's Socialist government introduced and then passed the gay marriage bill. France became the 14th country in the world to allow same sex unions.

The protests are strongly backed by the Roman Catholic Church and has become a chance for the French right to rally against the left.

Interior Minister Manuel Valls said some 100 known far-right protesters were among those arrested in the early hours of Monday. To control the waves of protests, 4,500 police officers were on duty in Paris on Sunday to deal with the huge crowds.

France's first gay wedding is due to take place on this week in Montpellier, in the south of the country.

In spite of the violent opposition, a survey published on Sunday showed 53 percent of French people support gay marriage and adoption.

The mass rallies have contributed to President Hollande's low popularity ratings. The still-new Hollande administration has been plagued by economic recession and unemployment has now hit more than 10 percent, but Hollande got some welcome news on Sunday, after his popularity inched up four points to 29 percent this month.

Although it failed to block gay marriage, the protest movement hopes its show of force will delay or stop further laws allowing assisted procreation and surrogate motherhood for gay couples.

Throwing gasoline on the fire to an already volatile situation, writer Dominique Venner, linked to a far-right French nationalist party, shot and killed himself inside Paris' Notre Dame Cathedral. He had called for "spectacular" action to protect France's identity, and was denouncing same-sex marriage law.
