Classes Suspended Due to Walang Pasok Weather Alert
Several local government units declared walang pasok on Friday, July 11, as the southwest monsoon, known locally as habagat, brought heavy rains across many areas in the Philippines. Residents were advised to stay alert as the weather system continued to affect the region.
According to a 5 a.m. weather update from the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa), the habagat is expected to cause widespread rain throughout the day. This prompted local officials to suspend classes to ensure the safety of students and school personnel.
Areas with Walang Pasok Due to Habagat
Local leaders in Occidental Mindoro announced the suspension of classes in their jurisdictions. Specifically, all levels of public and private schools in Mamburao and Paluan have been suspended for the day due to the inclement weather.
Residents in these areas are encouraged to take necessary precautions amid the adverse weather conditions. “Mag-ingat po tayo sa baha at landslide lalo na sa mga prone areas,” a local official reminded the public.
Weather Outlook and Safety Reminders
Pagasa also noted the possibility of two to three tropical cyclones developing in July, which could further impact the country’s weather patterns. Citizens are urged to monitor official updates and heed warnings from local authorities.
For continuous updates, the public should regularly check trusted sources and prepare accordingly. School suspensions or other emergency announcements may be issued as the situation evolves.
