Bagyong Falcon 'moving away' from the Philippines - PAGASA

Bagyong Falcon (Tropical Storm FAlcon) has acquired more strength and has accelerated as it continuously moves away from the country, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said via its bulletin on Friday.

Bagyong Falcon was last spotted at 590 km North Northeast of Basco, Batanes at 4 a.m.

The bulletin added that Tropical Storm Falcon is still expected to "enhance the Southwest Monsoon and bring occasional rains over Luzon particularly over the western sections of Northern and Central Luzon. "

Moving at a rate of 24kph in a North Northwest direction, the weather disturbance now has maximum sustained winds of 105 kph near the center and gustiness of up to 135 kph.

Meanwhile here's PAGASA's 24-hour weather outlook for June 25, 2011:

Northern and Central Luzon will experience monsoon rains which may trigger flashfloods and landslides while the Southern Tagalog Region will have cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms. The rest of Southern Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao will be partly cloudy to cloudy with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms mostly in the afternoon or evening.

Moderate to strong winds blowing from the Southwest will prevail over Northern and Central Luzon and Southern Tagalog Region and coming from the Southeast to Southwest over the rest of the country. The coastal waters throughout the archipelago will be moderate to rough.
