Salamat Sierra Madre 💪❤️🙏

Alam talaga ng Panginoon kung paano tayo protektahan ngunit tao lang talaga ang sumisira sa kalikasan.

Ang bulubundukin ng Sierra Madre ay ang pinakamahaba sa Pilipinas, na kumikilos bilang isang "Backbone of Luzon" na umaabot mula Cagayan hanggang Quezon. Ito ay isang mahalagang likas na kalasag ng bagyo na nagpoprotekta sa mga nasa loob ng bansa mula sa mga bagyong nagmumula sa Karagatang Pasipiko sa pamamagitan ng pagpapahina ng hangin at pag-ulan. Ang hanay ay tahanan din ng magkakaibang wildlife at katutubong komunidad, ngunit ang mga ecosystem nito ay kasalukuyang nanganganib sa pamamagitan ng deforestation, iligal na pagtotroso, at mga proyekto sa pagpapaunlad.

Ingatan po sana natin ang ating kalikasan na bigay ng Poong Maykapal. 🥹

Save Sierra Madre⛰️ End Minning Now‼️

TRACK AND INTENSITY OUTLOOK:
Do not focus on the center track as it may still shift within the limit of the forecast confidence cone. Heavy rainfall, severe winds, and storm surge may still be experienced far from the landfall point or center track, and even in areas outside the forecast confidence cone. Always refer to the latest hazard warnings currently in effect (e.g., Wind Signals, Heavy Rainfall Warnings, Storm Surge Warnings) and the information under “Other Hazards affecting Land Areas” of this bulletin for more details.

• At 9:10 PM today, UWAN has made landfall over Dinalungan, Aurora. UWAN will then traverse the mountainous terrain of Northern Luzon and emerge over Lingayen Gulf or over the coastal waters of La Union or Ilocos Sur tomorrow morning. The interaction with the terrain will cause UWAN to weaken significantly, but it is expected to remain as typhoon throughout its passage over Northern Luzon.
• UWAN will begin to turn northwestward to northward from tomorrow to Tuesday (11 November) while remaining at typhoon category. On Wednesday (12 November), UWAN will turn northeastward towards the Taiwan Strait while weakening. It is forecast to make landfall over western Taiwan on Thursday (13 November), then rapidly weaken over the Taiwan landmass before emerging over the waters near Ryukyu Islands before weakening further into a remnant low.

Considering these developments, the public and disaster risk reduction and management offices concerned are advised to take all necessary measures to protect life and property. Persons living in areas identified to be highly or very highly susceptible to these hazards are advised to follow evacuation and other instructions from local officials. For heavy rainfall warnings, thunderstorm/rainfall advisories, and other severe weather information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your local PAGASA Regional Services Division.

The next tropical cyclone bulletin will be issued at 2:00 AM tomorrow.
