Tropical depression outside PAR to enter Philippines by mid-week

Potential displacement and property damage risk for residents in Eastern Visayas, Mindanao, and Bicol regions if typhoon intensifies as forecast.

From far out in the Pacific, a slow-moving disturbance is tracing a familiar arc toward the Philippine archipelago — a path the islands have known many times before. What begins as a modest tropical depression some 1,540 kilometers east of Mindanao may, by week's end, arrive as Typhoon Kabayan, carrying winds of 120 kilometers per hour and heavy rains for Eastern Visayas, Mindanao, and Bicol. PAGASA watches and warns, as it must, while communities in the storm's likely path face the recurring human task of preparing for what the sea and sky may bring.
