𝐒𝐀𝐍 𝐉𝐎𝐒𝐄, 𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐐𝐔𝐄 – The Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (PDRRMO) in Antique has urged residents to prepare early for the possible onslaught of Typhoon , which may bring Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal (TCWS) No. 4 or No. 5 once it makes landfall.
“Expect the worst. The impact could reach 184 kilometers per hour,” warned PDRRM Officer Broderick Train, emphasizing the need for urgent disaster preparedness.
Under PAGASA classifications, TCWS No. 4 indicates typhoon-level winds ranging from 118 to 184 kilometers per hour, which can cause severe damage to makeshift or light structures, major damage to homes such as roof failure or wall collapse, and airborne debris that may result in injuries or fatalities.
Meanwhile, TCWS No. 5 is the highest warning level, signaling super typhoon conditions with winds exceeding 185 kilometers per hour. This may bring severe to catastrophic damage, including the destruction of industrial buildings and homes, as well as prolonged disruptions to electricity, potable water supply, and telecommunications.
According to Train, the center of the typhoon may hit the central portion of Antique, particularly the towns of Laua-an and Barbaza. He added that the critical period for the province will be from 2:00 a.m. on November 4 until 2:00 a.m. on November 5, during which Antique may experience destructive winds, heavy rainfall, severe flooding, and coastal hazards.
Train has recommended that all municipal and barangay DRRMOs begin preemptive evacuations as early as Monday afternoon, including the relocation of farm animals.
He also called on the pre-positioning and distribution of food and non-food supplies to island towns and remote barangays ahead of the typhoon’s arrival.
The public is urged to prepare emergency “Go Bags” containing non-perishable food, potable water, medicines, flashlight, radio, whistle, important documents, and cash. Residents are likewise advised to avoid unnecessary trips and remain inside safe and secure locations while the typhoon is ongoing.
