SEVERE Tropical Storm “Paeng” (Nalgae) has maintained its strength while moving over the northern portion of Marinduque, where it made its fourth landfall Saturday morning, October 29, 2022.
Paeng made its fourth landfall at 8:40 a.m. Saturday in Santa Cruz, Marinduque. The first three were in Virac, Catanduanes (1:10 a.m.); Caramoan, Camarines Sur (1:40 a.m.); and Buenavista, Quezon (6 a.m.).
As of 10 a.m., the center of Paeng was located in the vicinity of Mogpog, Marinduque, with maximum sustained winds of 95 kilometers per hour (km/h), gusts of up to 130 km/h, and central pressure of 985 hPa. It was moving west southwestward at 25 km/h.
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) hoisted Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal (TCWS) Number 3 in Marinduque, the northern and central portions of Quezon (Pitogo, San Andres, Buenavista, Lucena City, San Francisco, Pagbilao, Infanta, Tiaong, Lopez, Catanauan, Mulanay, Unisan, General Luna, Plaridel, Quezon, San Antonio, Alabat, Candelaria, Lucban, Sampaloc, Padre Burgos, Sariaya, City of Tayabas, Macalelon, Mauban, Dolores, General Nakar, Perez, Agdangan, Gumaca, Atimonan, Real, San Narciso, Guinayangan, Calauag) including Pollilo Islands, Laguna, Batangas, Cavite, Metro Manila, Rizal, Bataan, the southern portion of Zambales (Olongapo City, Subic, Castillejos, San Antonio), and Lubang Islands.

Pagasa said Paeng was forecast to track westward in the short term before moving west northwestward through Sunday across Luzon.
On the forecast track, the center of Paeng was expected to make another landfall, this time in the vicinity of southeastern portion of Batangas before traversing the Cavite-Metro Manila-Bataan Peninsula area for the remainder of the day.
“However, southward shift in the forecast track of Paeng is possible in the succeeding bulletins,” said the weather bureau.
It added that due to frictional effects, Paeng may weaken into a tropical storm while moving over the Luzon landmass. It may re-intensify into a severe tropical storm once it reaches the West Philippine Sea. (LMY)
