PAGASA Releases Latest Weather Update for Thursday (July 27, 2023)
PAGASA WEATHER UPDATE – The state weather bureau reported that Typhoon Egay is set to exit PAR this morning or afternoon.
On Thursday (July 27, 2023), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. Typhoon Egay will continue to affect the country’s weather condition.
PAGASA reported that Typhoon Egay was last located 195 kilometers west of Basco, Batanes packing maximum sustained winds of 150 kilometers per hour and gustiness of up to 185 kph.
Egay is expected to head towards northwestward or north northwestward over the Luzon Strait, the sea southwest of Taiwan, and the Taiwan Strait. The weather disturbance is expected to leave the Philippine Area of Responsibility this morning or afternoon.
However, Egay enhances the southwest monsoon, which will bring occasional to monsoon rains over the western portions of Central Luzon and Southern Luzon within the next three days.

“Under these conditions, flooding and rain-induced landslides are highly likely especially in areas that are highly or very highly susceptible to these hazards as identified in hazard maps and in localities that experienced considerable amounts of rainfall for the past several days,” PAGASA said.
