START OF THE SOUTHWEST MONSOON

Ahead of the possible onset of the rainy season, the DOST-PAGASA officially announces the start of the Southwest Monsoon or Habagat over the Philippines, which is one of the precursors of the onset of the rainy season.

As Habagat becomes the dominant weather system, occasional to frequent rains and thunderstorms are expected, particularly over the western sections of the country. These conditions may signal the possible onset of the rainy season in the coming days.

However, there may be rain breaks that last a few days or weeks, known as monsoon breaks.

📢 Paalala sa Publiko: Mag-ingat sa Panahon ng Matinding Init

Nauunawaan namin na dahil sa napakataas na temperatura, marami ang naaakit pumunta sa mga ilog at iba pang anyong-tubig upang magpalamig at magpiknik. Gayunpaman, paalala sa lahat na mag-ingat at maging responsable dahil mataas ang panganib ng pagkalunod.

⚠️ Mga karaniwang sanhi ng pagkalunod:

1. Kakulangan sa kasanayan sa paglangoy – Mga hindi marunong o kulang sa kumpiyansa sa tubig

2. Malalakas na agos o biglaang paglalim ng tubig – Lalo na sa mga ilog at bukas na anyong-tubig

3. Madudulas na bato at hindi pantay na lugar – Maaaring magdulot ng aksidenteng pagkahulog sa malalim na bahagi

4. Pag-inom ng alak – Nakaaapekto sa pag-iisip, balanse, at koordinasyon

5. Kawalan ng pagbabantay – Lalo na sa mga batang naiiwang walang kasama

6. Sobrang pagtitiwala sa sariling kakayahan – Pagkapagod o pagkataranta habang lumalangoy

7. Kakulangan ng kagamitang pangkaligtasan – Walang life vest o iba pang pantulong sa paglutang

8. Pagsisid sa hindi alam o mababaw na lugar – Maaaring magdulot ng pinsala na hahantong sa pagkalunod

9. Pagbabago ng panahon – Biglaang pag-ulan na maaaring magdulot ng pagbaha o mas malakas na agos

10. Kondisyong medikal – Tulad ng pulikat, problema sa puso, o seizure habang nasa tubig

✅ Paalala: Laging may kasamang lumangoy, bantayang mabuti ang mga bata, iwasan ang pag-inom ng alak, at maging mapagmatyag sa kalagayan ng tubig.

Mag-enjoy nang ligtas at responsable. 🚨
