PAGASA Says Typhoon Emong to Affect PH Weather Condition
PAGASA LATEST UPDATE – The state weather bureau reported that Typhoon Emong will bring rains over parts of the country.
On Friday (July 25, 2025), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. Typhoon Emong will affect the country’s weather condition.
PAGASA reported that Typhoon Emong accelerates and is about to make a second landfall in Ilocos Sur or the northern portion of La Union.
Emong was last spotted over the coastal waters of Bangar, La Union packing maximum sustained winds of 120 kilometers per hour and gustiness of up to 165 kph.
“Emong may maintain its strength as it makes its second landfall. A slight weakening prior to its second landfall due to increasing interaction with the terrain of northwestern Luzon is not ruled out. Nevertheless, the passage of Emong will trigger a weakening trend, which is expected to continue for the rest of the forecast period,” Pagasa said.
