PAGASA LATEST UPDATE – The state weather bureau reported that Goring weakens into a typhoon but may become a super typhoon again.
On Monday (August 28, 2023), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update. Typhoon Goring will affect the country’s weather conditions.
PAGASA reported that Super Typhoon Goring has weakened into a typhoon. It was last spotted at 210 km east of Casiguran, Aurora. Strong to typhoon-force winds are extending outwards up to 280 kilometers.

The weather disturbance has weakened into a typhoon but may intensify again to a super typhoon on Tuesday (August 29, 2023).
“GORING is forecast to slightly weaken further in the next 12 hours due to upwelling of cooler ocean waters and the onset of dry air intrusion before re-intensifying as it turns northwestward. It may be upgraded again to super typhoon category by mid tomorrow,” PAGASA said.
