Marce further intensifies; Signal No. 4 seen as highest wind signal
Tropical Storm Marce, internationally named Yinxing, entered the Philippine Area of Responsibility on Monday morning and has since intensified.
As of Monday afternoon, Marce has maximum sustained winds of 85 km/h and gustiness of up to 105 km/h, moving west-northwest at 30 kph.
PAGASA predicts Marce could rapidly intensify into a severe tropical storm by Monday night or Tuesday morning and a typhoon by Tuesday evening or early Wednesday.
The highest possible wind signal, Signal No. 4, is forecast to be hoisted during Marce's expected effects, with Signal No. 1 possibly raised over parts of Cagayan by Monday evening or Tuesday morning.
Marce is expected to enhance the northeasterly wind flow, bringing strong to gale-force gusts to Batanes, Cagayan including Babuyan Islands, Isabela, Ilocos Norte, Aurora, and the northern portion of Quezon.
Rough seas of up to 3.5 meters may be experienced in the seaboards of Batanes, Babuyan Islands, Ilocos Norte, and Ilocos Sur, prompting advisories for small seacrafts.
