The Philippines was transitioning to the wet season when Typhoon Aghon entered the country last week. Aghon brought much-needed rain to communities affected by El Niño-induced drought, but it also caused several fatalities and the proclamation of a state of calamity in several parts of Luzon.
On Sunday, PAGASA warned of heavy rainfall of up to 200 millimeters in Quezon.“Sa Quezon, specifically Tayabas, ‘yung monthly normal nila is nasa 159.7 mm. Ang percentage ay at least 150% ang inakyat sa normal na dami ng ulan na binubuhos sa buwan ng Mayo,” said PAGASA weather forecaster Glaiza Escullar at a news conference.But while the typhoon brought rain, PAGASA weather specialist John Manalo said the rainy season has yet to start in the Philippines.
