The state weather bureau on Tuesday said Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal or TCWS No. 2 is still hoisted over Batanes as Typhoon Jenny moves north-northwestward over the Philippine Sea.

In its latest weather bulletin, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration, said typhoon Jenny was last tracked 325 kilometers east northeast of Itbayat, Batanes.

The weather disturbance maintained its strength, packing maximum sustained winds of 155 kilometers per hour near the center, and gustiness of up to 190 kph.

Gale-force winds will prevail in Batanes.

Meanwhile, strong winds will prevail in areas where TCWS No. 1 remains hoisted: Cagayan including Babuyan Islands, the northern and eastern portions of Isabela (Maconacon, Divilacan, Palanan, Santa Maria, San Pablo, Tumauini, Cabagan, Ilagan City, San Mariano, Santo Tomas, Dinapigue, Benito Soliven, Naguilian, Gamu, Quirino, Delfin Albano, Quezon, Mallig), Apayao, the northeastern portion of Abra (Tineg, Lacub, Malibcong), the northern portion of Kalinga (Balbalan, Pinukpuk, Rizal, City of Tabuk), and Ilocos Norte.

Typhoon Jenny will continue to enhance the southwest monsoon, causing occasional rains over the western portions of Central and Southern Luzon, and the Visayas in the next three days.

Gusty conditions due to the enhanced southwest monsoon continue to prevail in Aurora, Bataan, Bulacan, Metro Manila, Calabarzon, Bicol Region, and most of Mimaropa and Western Visayas.

Rough to very rough seas are forecast over the coastal waters along the seaboards of Northern Luzon.

PAGASA said moderate to rough seas will prevail over the coastal waters of northern Aurora due to the Typhoon.

Mariners of motor bancas and similarly-sized vessels are advised to take precautionary measures while venturing to the sea.

Typhoon Jenny is forecast to exit the Philippine Area of Responsibility on Thursday.
