TYPHOON "ROLLY" INTENSIFIES FURTHER AS IT MOVES WESTWARD OVER THE PHILIPPINE SEA.
Track and intensity outlook:
• Track: “ROLLY” is forecast to move west-southwestward this afternoon until tomorrow evening. Afterwards, the typhoon will turn west-northwestward as it moves over the sea off the coast of Bicol Region towards the eastern coast of Aurora-Quezon area. On the forecast track, the center of the eye of “ROLLY” is likely to make landfall over the Aurora-Quezon area on Sunday evening or Monday early morning.
• Intensity: The typhoon is forecast to continuously intensify over the Philippine Sea and is likely to make landfall at intensity of 175-195 km/h.
Hazards affecting land areas:
• Rainfall: Today through tomorrow morning, the trough of the typhoon and the northeasterly surface windflow will bring light to moderate with at times heavy rains over Bicol Region, Eastern and Central Visayas, Caraga, Northern Mindanao, Zamboanga Peninsula, Batanes, Cagayan, Isabela. The typhoon will likely bring heavy to intense rains over Northern and Central Luzon and Bicol Region, especially those areas along the track of "ROLLY", beginning tomorrow or Sunday.
• Strong winds: Strong breeze to near gale conditions will be experienced in areas under Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal (TCWS) #1 within 36 hours of the raising of the wind signal. TCWS #1 may be raised over the northern portion of Northern Samar and the rest of Bicol Region in the next bulletin. Given that it is likely for this typhoon to continue intensifying prior to landfall, the highest possible TCWS that will be raised throughout the passage of this typhoon will be TCWS #4 (associated with destructive to very destructive typhoon-force winds).
• Storm surge: A storm surge of up to 2.0 m may be experienced over the coastal areas of Aurora, Quezon, Marinduque, Bicol Region, and Northern Samar.
Hazards affecting coastal waters:
• Today, rough to very rough seas (2.8 to 4.5 m) will be experienced over the seaboards of areas under TCWS and Northern Luzon, the eastern seaboards of Central Luzon and Quezon including Polillo Islands, and the northern seaboards of Camarines Provinces. Sea travel is risky over these areas, especially for mariners of small seacrafts.
• Moderate to rough seas (1.2 to 2.5 m) will be experienced over the eastern seaboards of Visayas and Mindanao and the remaining seaboards of Luzon. Mariners of small seacrafts are advised to take precautionary measures when venturing out to sea. Inexperienced mariners should avoid navigating in these conditions.
