Rains brought about by Typhoon Bising (Surigae) will persist in parts of Luzon and Visayas, PAGASA said Tuesday as it warned of possible floods and landslides.
Bising, the second storm of the Philippines this year, has maintained its strength with maximum sustained winds of 175 kph near the center and gusts of up to 215 kph.
PAGASA said moderate to heavy rains will prevail over Catanduanes while light to moderate at times heavy rains are likely over the eastern portion of Quezon, Camarines Provinces, Sorsogon, Albay, and Northern Samar.
"Under these conditions and considering the antecedent rainfall over the aforementioned areas, flooding (including flashfloods) and rain-induced landslides are highly likely to occur especially in areas identified in hazard maps as highly or very highly susceptible to these hazards," it said.
