The southwest monsoon and Hanna prompted PAGASA to raise a gale warning over the northern and western seaboards of Luzon, the eastern seaboards of Central and Southern Luzon, portions of seaboards of Northern Quezon, the southern seaboard of Southern Luzon, and the western seaboard of Visayas.
PAGASA has raised Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal No. 1 over Batanes. The typhoon is expected to leave the Philippine Area of Responsibility on Monday afternoon or evening (September 4, 2023).
