Summary of the video’s weather update (July 20, 2026)

  • New storm status: A new tropical system (“bagyo”) is being tracked east of the country. Based on updated satellite imagery, it has weakened slightly into a tropical depression, with winds noted around 45 km/h near the center (and mentioned movement/flow up to about 55 km/h). It is moving westward at ~10 km/h.

  • Expected entry into the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR): The forecaster says it may enter the PAR in the coming days, and authorities have already prepared the public for a possible impact. The expected timing mentioned is around July 24–25 (hoped-for scenario), when the storm could get closer to or approach the boundaries of the PAR.

  • Rain and wind impacts from southwest monsoon enhancement: Even before a direct hit, the storm is expected to strengthen the southwest wind, bringing:

    • Cloudy skies and scattered rains
    • Moderate to heavy rainfall at times
    • Possible flooding in low-lying areas
    • Landslides in mountainous areas
    • Threats of localized thunderstorms that can produce sudden heavy downpours

  • Areas most affected by southwest wind (with stronger effects):

    • Western Visayas and Mindanao (stronger impacts): Palawan, Antique, Aklan, Capiz, Iloilo, Guimaras, Negros Occidental/Oriental, Cebu, Siquijor
    • More rainy conditions in Mindanao under the monsoon influence: Tawi-Tawi, Sulu, Basilan, Zamboanga areas, Lanao del Norte/Sur, Maguindanao, Sultan Kudarat, South Cotabato, Sarangani, and Davao Region
    • Other potentially closer-influence areas (best-case track scenario): Possible approach/closer proximity to Northern/Eastern Samar, Samar, and Bicol Region, including Sorsogon, Albay, Catanduanes, Camarines Sur, Camarines Norte

  • Uncertain typhoon track / multiple scenarios presented:

    • Most likely landfall/track scenarios discussed include routes where it may pass through Visayas toward Masbate, Romblon, Marinduque, and Oriental Mindoro, then cross land.
    • Another scenario suggests it could move northwest, possibly affecting Aurora, Cagayan, Isabela, Quirino, Benguet, La Union before crossing.
    • Another possibility includes moving toward/near the Batanes/Tabayug group as it shifts northward and westward.
    • A final scenario notes it may only approach slightly and then move away northeast, potentially toward northern areas and beyond (e.g., toward Japan if it shifts eastward in northern Luzon).

  • If it intensifies inside PAR: If the system becomes a full typhoon within the PAR, it will be given the local name: “Typhoon Quiapo” (described as the 11th typhoon of 2026). The message emphasizes staying alert for updates because conditions could change.
