Signal No. 1 in Batanes as Bising intensifies, may re-enter PAR
Typhoon Danas is on the verge of re-entering the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) and again taking the mantle Bising, PAGASA said Sunday evening. In its 11 p.m. tropical cyclone bulletin, the state weather forecaster said that Batanes remains under Signal No. 1 due to Bising, while most of the Philippines is expected to experience rains also due to the Southwest Monsoon or Habagat. As of 10 p.m., the center of the eye of Bising was estimated to 335 km northwest of Itbayat, Batanes outside PAR. It is moving northeast at 20 km/h with maximum sustained winds of 150 kn/h near the center, gustiness of up to 185 km/h, and central pressure of 965 hPa. The Habagat and the periphery of Bising are also forecast to bring strong to gale-force gusts to the Ilocos Region, Cagayan, Isabela, Aurora, Zambales, Bataan, Quezon, Occidental Mindoro, Masbate, and Romblon on Monday, "especially in coastal and upland areas exposed to winds," said PAGASA. Some areas have already suspended Monday classes in anticipation of the weather. As it continues northeast, Bising could re-enter the northwestern boundary of PAR Sunday night or early Monday morning, PAGASA added. It is then seen to cross the Taiwan landmass and its center will leave the northern boundary of PAR Monday morning, and eventually be 720 kilometers north northwest of Itbayat, Batanes or in the vicinity of Fujian, China on Wednesday morning. In its separate rainfall advisory, PAGASA said light to moderate rains are expected over Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, and Tarlac, which will affect Zambales and Bataan.

Areas in Bukidnon, Davao Region flooded after continuous rains
Some areas in Bukidnon and in the Davao Region were flooded over the weekend due to the strong rains brought about by the southwest monsoon or Habagat, including a residential area in Davao del Sur where a wake had to be moved as waters reached waist-high. A river in Barangay Tacul in Magsaysay, Davao del Sur was recorded to have overflowed with the water spilling over to nearby houses, and forcing a wake to be moved in a nearby gymnasium, as reported by Rgil Relator on GMA's '24 Oras Weekend' on Sunday. Residents of Purok Bankerohan and Purok Kawayan who were trapped in their residences were also evacuated by authorities. Official figures regarding affected individuals have yet to be released. Floods were also recorded in Bukidnon, where zero visibility was reported along the Talaingod Bukidnon national highway. A road along Sitio Saladoc in Don Marcelino, Davao Occidental was likewise impassable, due to the debris caused by the rains. The state weather bureau PAGASA said the southwest monsoon or Habagat is expected to continue to bring rains over most of the country on Sunday. — Jon Viktor D. Cabuenas/BM, GMA Integrated News

Woman nabbed for online sexual exploitation of children, including daughter
A 38-year-old woman was arrested in Las Nieves, Agusan del Norte last Wednesday for allegedly selling lewd photos and videos of three children, including her own daughter. The woman was arrested by authorities in her residence on Wednesday afternoon, where authorities said they found a "showroom" where she would make the children—her 13-year-old daughter and the daughters, aged 13 and eight, or her live-in partner—dance and perform "live shows" for customers, mostly located overseas. Authorities said they found materials saved in her gadgets, for which she would charge customers thousands for access. 'Sa kaniyang residence mismo ay may ginawa siya na showroom kung saan niya ine-entertain 'yung mga foreign nationals na mga customers niya at doon niya ipinapasayaw or ipinapakita itong mga tatlong minor victims na na-rescue natin,' a representative of the Buenavista Municipal Police Station said in a report by Bea Pinlac on GMA's '24 Oras Weekend' on Sunday. (She made a showroom in her residence where she would entertain her foreign customers by showing the three minors, whom we have rescued, and have them dance.) The woman is now in the custody of the Buenavista Municipal Police, and is set to face charges of child abuse, human trafficking, and online sexual abuse and exploitation of minors. She has claimed innocence. The police said they are also investigating the woman's live-in partner, and looking deeper if he is also connected to the scheme. — Jon Viktor D.
