PAGASA Releases Latest Weather Update for Thursday (July 9, 2026)
PAGASA LATEST UPDATE – The state weather bureau reported the Inday has weakened into a typhoon as it moves over the Philippine Sea.
On Thursday (July 9, 2026), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. Super Typhoon Inday has slightly weakened but it will continue to bring rains over parst of the country.
PAGASA weather specialist Leanne Loreto reported that Inday was last spotted 925 kilometers east of Northern Luzon. It has maximum sustained winds of 175 kilometers per hour and gustiness of up to 215 kph.
The typhoon will bring rains with gusty winds over Cagayan Valley, Cordillera Administrative Region, Ilocos Norte, Aurora, and Catanduanes.
Cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms are expected over Eastern Visayas and the rest of the Bicol Region.
Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal (TCWS) No. 1 was raised in the following areas:
- Batanes
- Cagayan including Babuyan Islands
- Isabela
- Northeastern portion of Quirino
- Apayao
- Northern portion of Abra
- Kalinga
- the eastern portion of Mountain Province (Natonin, Paracelis)
- the eastern portion of Ifugao (Aguinaldo, Alfonso Lista)
- Ilocos Norte
- the northern portion of Aurora (Dilasag, Casiguran)
- the northern and central portions of Catanduanes (Pandan, Caramoran, Bagamanoc, Panganiban, Viga, Gigmoto, Baras, San Miguel)
Between Friday evening (July 10) and Saturday morning (July 11), Inday is expected to move northwestward before moving toward the southern islands of Japan and may pass close to the northern coast of Taiwan.
“Inday is forecast to gradually weaken but will remain as a typhoon until it exits the PAR. It will then weaken into a severe tropical storm after moving further inland over mainland China. As Inday moves over the sea east of Taiwan, a faster weakening trend is not ruled out due to an increasingly unfavorable environment,” PAGASA said.
Meanwhile, a gale warning was raised over the northern and eastern seaboards of Luzon, and the eastern seaboard of Visayas, according to PAGASA.
